Western Week and Native Spirit
Thursday, February 7 and 28, 2019 | 6:30 to 9:00 p.m.

The two events —Western Week ArtWalk held on Thursday, February 7 at 6:30 p.m. and Native Spirit ArtWalk held Thursday, February 28 at 6:30 p.m., pay homage to a distinct part of the City of Scottsdale’s history — its unique western roots and its strong Native American community.

Art in Motion: A Video Experience
Thursday, April 6, 2017 | 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.
The Scottsdale Gallery Association is excited to announce Art in Motion: A Video Experience, a special evening to highlight the truly dynamic medium of video art.
Aside from the video art which will be featured in many of our galleries, the ArtWalk will feature the work and wisdom of internationally acclaimed visual artist Lorraine Garcia-Nakata.
This ArtWalk will begin a day early with a reception on the evening of Wednesday, April 5, at the Calvin Charles Gallery from 6:00 to 8:00 PM, where Ms. Garcia-Nakata will present Video Art: Its Role and Voice, a short lecture on the history and development of the medium of video art. The event is free, but space is limited, so please RSVP to thejulimyers@gmail.com.
Video Art: Its Role and Voice
Video art has a long history in the U.S., yet many arts professionals continue to be puzzled by its role in the art arena. By extension, galleries, philanthropists, presenters, and other arts professionals struggle with how to digest, position, or represent this video/motion-based arts production. To understand video art and new motion-based genre, it is important to explore why this genre was created. Deriving from a visual arts foundation, video art evolved to incorporate multiple disciplines in order to give voice to more urgent concerns such as social justice, gender, race and class, and many other complex areas of human experience. Not an art history presentation, this talk is designed to engage a discussion with attendees.
Ms. García-Nakata is a recognized visual artist that has exhibited extensively on a local, national and international level. Adept in a range of visual arts mediums, Ms. García-Nakata is noted for her large-scale works in drawing and painting. As an arts/culture specialist, Lorraine has made extensive contribution to the fields of arts and cultural policy, non-profit arts administration across discipline, philanthropy, program development, understanding the creative process, community development, and new directions in arts education. As one of California’s first Arts Grants Fund Administrators, she oversaw the Visual Arts funding and defined the Interdisciplinary (new genre)s funding area. Lorraine was a mayoral appointee as Arts Commissioner to the San Francisco Arts Commission, appointed by the US Congress as Commissioner exploring creation of a National Museum of the American Latino, and is currently a Founding Member with San Francisco Latino Historical Society. Lorraine is a recipient of a California Arts Council Visual Arts Fellowship. Since 1973, Lorraine has been a member with the world-renowned Sacramento Chicano artist collective, the Royal Chicano Air Force (RCAF). In 2015, Stanford University sought and acquired the Lorraine García-Nakata Archive as part of the Stanford University Library, Special Collections. Lorraine continues to live and work in San Francisco.
To enhance the perfect desert evening, we will also have two curated video exhibitions featuring artists Alberto Grovas and Dakota on Marshall Way north of Indian School Road and on Main Street near Marshall Way.
Artists wishing to share their work as part of Art in Motion are requested to please submit samples along with a short biography to Jeffrey Lazos-Ferns at ferns_jeffrey@yahoo.com.
