The Capital City Arts Initiative announces its exhibition, BRIC Art 5, with artwork by eight area artists at the City’s Business Resource Innovation Center, where a reception will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday.
Each year at the BRIC, CCAI’s group exhibition presents northern Nevada artists’ work in a diversity of styles and in a variety of media. The exhibition, spread throughout the first floor offices and conference rooms, presents artists’ creativity in collage, photography, painting, sculpture, and print making.
BRIC Art 5 features mixed media collages by Joan Arrizabalaga, Tuscarora oil landscapes by Ron Arthaud, portraits by Zoe Bray, watercolors by Cyndy Brenneman, silk embroideries based on MRI images by Paula Chung, monotypes by Amelia Currier, paper sculptures by Vance Houston, and photographs of historic Reno residences by Emily Rogers.
