"OUTrageous" is a powerful and timely exhibition that personifies Art Ventures’ commitment to supporting the LGBTQ+ Community. The exhibition represents a defiant assertion of queer creativity, expression, and identity. “OUTrageous” does this against the backdrop of regressive laws and policies that seek to undermine the rights and dignity of queer individuals across the country.
The exhibition showcases the works of both Represented and Visiting Artists, providing queer individuals with an opportunity to define and celebrate what queer art means to them. By doing so, "OUTrageous" aims to challenge the misconceptions and stereotypes that have been historically associated with queer art, while also creating a space for queer artists to share their stories, experiences, and perspectives. -
Welcome to the Palace
Fayetteville Public Library
401 West Mountain Street, FayettevilleSeptember 4 - November 11, 2022
Welcome to the Palace is an exhibition of Zeek Taylor’s highly imaginative, gilded works that celebrate a spirit of playfulness and glamor. In Zeek Taylor’s palace one will see chimps decked out in their finest clothes, flowers garbed in colorful glory, and Bacchus, the God of Wine, lounging amidst luscious grapes. Taylor’s style bends the rules of realism in order to showcase pattern and color theory, creating a sense of fantasy and fun.

Artists translate and reflect culture and do so in individual ways that describe whether it is in stasis or change. How do we align as humans responding to natural and man-made impacts upon culture? This exhibition offers you the opportunity to find your reflection in artists as they translate and respond to life in our times.
