SUMMARY:The Needle's Art: Embroidered Treasures of the Emily Reynolds Historic Costume Collection Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:The Historical and Cultural Society of Clay County is pleased to announce the opening of a new exhibit called The Needle’s Art: Embroidered Treasures from the Emily Reynolds Historic Costume Collection; multiple embroidered textiles will be on display at the Hjemkomst Center March 26 through June 23. \nUsing a needle and thread to embellish clothing and textiles has been practiced by men and women for centuries in both the home and in professional workshops. But early in the nineteenth century\, embroidery became primarily viewed as a woman’s activity and was relegated to the arena of crafts\, often without recognition of the artist who made it. American museums are filled with these pieces of needle art\, made in the home and passed down through the family until they end up in a museum collection. These pieces illustrate more than a woman’s ability to mark her family’s linens\, beautify her home\, or fulfill her expected social role. They become an outlet for her creativity and a means of moving beyond her home and into the wider world. \nThe Emily Reynolds Historic Costume Collection at North Dakota State University has a remarkable collection of embroidered pieces made in the home\, added to clothing or textiles by professional embroiderers\, or collected by donors during their world travels. This exhibit celebrates the art of embroidery—an art that spans geography\, cultures\, and time to connect women across the world and across history. \nThe Emily Reynolds Historic Costume Collection is a repository of material culture focusing on clothing\, textiles\, and related items. The collection works to reveal how such objects serve as a record of life through collection\, preservation\, and study. Housed at North Dakota State University\, across the river from Moorhead in Fargo\, ND\, the collection of over 5000 fiber artifacts has broadened its mission to preserve the cultural heritage of the state and region through textiles\, clothing\, and related items. \nThis activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from Lake Region Arts Council\, thanks to a Minnesota State Legislative appropriation; The Arts Partnership with the Cities of Fargo\, Moorhead\, and West Fargo; the Fargo-Moorhead Area Foundation\, and the Alex Stern Family Foundation.

SUMMARY:Exhibit: "John Scott Postovit: Myth and Legend"
DESCRIPTION:Join us at The Rourke Art Gallery + Museum for an exclusive showcase of “John Scott Postovit: Myth and Legend” exhibit\, running from Friday 5 April to Sunday 9 June. \nMembers of the Rourke and their guests are invited to special reception for the upcoming exhibit Friday 5 April from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. \nFollowing the Members Preview\, all are welcome for the Public Opening of the exhibit on Saturday 8 June from 1:30 – 3:30 p.m. Sherry will present a gallery talk at 2 p.m. \nView “John Scott Postovit: Myth and Legend” and all of our exhibits during public viewing hours Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. \nAbout the Artist:\nJohn Scott Postovit was born in Grand Forks\, North Dakota in 1962\, and raised in Bismarck and Fargo. He attended the University of North Dakota\, and graduated in 1985 with a B.F.A. in Painting and a B.S. in Physics. Since then\, he has lived on the east and west coasts\, as well as a nine-month spell in Florence\, Italy. His paintings and drawings have been exhibited in galleries and museums in various locations across the country\, including North Dakota\, Minnesota\, New Jersey\, Washington\, Ohio\, Montana\, and California. To date\, his art has appeared in 41 solo exhibitions and 142 group shows. He currently lives in the mountains south of San Francisco\, California\, where he draws as well as teaching math and physics. \n​Postovit’s primary medium for the past thirty-four years has been pastel and charcoal. Over the years\, his work has progressed to more detailed and complex representational work. Most of his work is done for specific shows\, and the themes vary from show to show\, from figurative to historical\, mythological to allegorical\, and cityscape to landscape. The common thread found throughout these drawings are the intense colors\, and many surreal and anachronistic objects thrown into the compositions.
