KELLY URQUHART
Hello from Ohio!
Update 7/9/10:
The Deep Space: Ohio Photographers exhibition at the Ohio Arts Council's Riffe Gallery is right around the corner! It will run from July 29 – October 17, 2010 and the opening reception will be on Thursday, July 29th from 5-7pm. Jaime and I will both be there and look forward to seeing the show, meeting the other artists, and gallery attendees.
You can view additional information about the exhibition here.
Before the reception, Jaime and I will be participating in a video interview with the Ohio Channel about our pieces in the exhibition. I am excited about this video, as it marks a decade's journey of working with Jaime throughout our various art endeavors.
There are some great interviews with other Ohio artists, including fellow Miami University Grad Alum, Brent Payne. You can check out these interviews here.
Thank you to the Riffe Gallery Staff and Marcella Hackbardt, Curator of Deep Space: Ohio Photographers, for picking 3 of our "Nesting" images for this exhibition.
Thanks for visiting!

We just received some great exhibition news! Two of our bird portraits (#2 and #4) were selected for Images 2010 at the Robeson Gallery at Penn State University. The exhibition's juror is artist and Director of the Samek Art Gallery at Bucknell University, Dan Mills. Images 2010 will be on view during the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts from June 9 - July 11, 2010. We have been busy promoting the Hung, Drawn, and Quartered series, but we really hope to attend this opening. Thank you to Dan Mills and the Robeson Gallery staff for this opportunity!

Congratulations to the artists and winners selected for Cleveland State University's 39th Annual Student Show! Thanks again to CSU's art students, S.O.F.A., the Art Faculty, and Art Gallery Staff for this opportunity. Also a special thanks to co-juror Bill Rupnik from the William Rupnik Gallery for sharing this great experience.
I encourage all to attend the show, there is some impressive work on display and for sale. The exhibition runs through May 8, 2010. Feel free to view a copy of my Juror's Statement here.
We have also recently received some exciting news! Two bird images were selected for The 25th Tallahassee International exhibition. 58 out of 800 pieces were chosen by Florida State University's Art Department Faculty and the show will be on view at the Museum of Fine Arts in Tallahassee, FL from August 23, 2010 through September 26, 2010. We look forward to seeing the work selected and thank you FSU's Art Faculty for selecting our pieces and Jean Young from the Museum of Fine Arts for your assistance and hard work on the show.

We met with Marcella Hackbardt, Curator and Associate Professor of Studio Art/Chair of Kenyon College last month to discuss the upcoming exhibition Deep Space: Ohio Photographers at the Ohio Arts Council's Riffe Gallery. It was great meeting and talking with Marcella and we are excited to be have been chosen to be a part of this exhibition set to open this Summer 2010. Marcella picked 3 of our "Nesting" images for this exhibition. I will be posting more information and details on Deep Space: Ohio Photographers soon.

Recently, one of our nesting images has made it into the Visual Arts Center of New Jersey's 24th International Juried Exhibition, juror: Susan Kismaric, MOMA Curator of Photography. It is a fabulous honor to be selected and we look forward to seeing the show in 2010.
We also received news about our acceptance into Altered: National Juried Photography Exhibition at the University of West Florida's Art Gallery in Pensacola, FL. The international artist, Tomiko Jones, was the juror for this exhibition.
5 pieces were selected by the talented Taryn Simon, photographer and Guggenheim fellow, for the current IMAGE/PROJECT juried exhibition at the Arlington Arts Center. The images selected look great and we are excited about being a part of this show.
The exhibitions: Finding Middle Ground at the Dayton Visual Arts Center, and Beastiarium Vocabulum: Allegory of the Nature in Lecce, Italy went really well. Thank you to the staff at DVAC and Primo Piano!!
Jaime and I are currently working on a new body of work while we continue to promote the Hung, Drawn, and Quartered series.
