🌟 3 DAYS 'TIL 🌟 "States of Being: recent prints made at Tamarind Institute" - "States of Being" is a group exhibition featuring prints made between 2013 and 2025 by contemporary artists in collaboration with Master Printers at Tamarind Institute at the University of New Mexico Albuquerque. Stay tuned for programming announcements!

📆 On view October 16-November 14, 2026
🕰 Reception: October 16, 6-8 pm
📍Fort Worth Contemporary Arts, 3050 Waits Ave, Fort Worth, TX

Featuring artsits Ellen Berkenbilt, Jarvis Boyland, Nick Cave, Sonya Clark, Lucy Fradkin, Jeffrey Gibson, Harmony Hammond, Ellen Lesperance, José Antonio Suárez Londoño, Nikki Maloof, Liliana Porter, Robert Pruitt, Brian Rea, Maja Ruznic and Paula Wilson.

The selection of 31 works showcases a range of lithographic techniques to embody broad themes and compositions that draw attention both to intimate details and idiosyncrasies and to grand scales of color and form. Some works welcome personal consideration whereas others gesture more broadly to social and cultural structures. Works selected for States of Being probe the quality of layered traces—such as the way limestone remembers mark making, layers of ink on paper that make an image and the ideas conveyed within the objects themselves—as a way to understand the transfer of information and representations of lived experiences.

"States of Being" was curated by Sara-Jayne Parsons, Kay Seedig and Scott Sherer and will tour to the University of Texas at San Antonio for presentation at the Main Art Gallery, January 27 – February 27, 2027.

🌟 BRANDON GUNN 🌟Join us as Brandon Gunn, Education Director and Master Printer, Tamarind Institute, gives a guest lecture in conjunction with "States of Being: recent prints from Tamarind Institute." Come learn the stories behind prints on view at Fort Worth Contemporary Arts, how they were made, and how artists and printers work together to create a truly collaborative lithograph. Through collaboration we learn how an artist thinks about their work and their content, something that can be opaque in the final imagery. As we talk about the making of the print, we will explore the meaning of the imagery and the powerful states of being contained within each print.

📆 Wednesday, October 28 at 6 pm
📍Fort Worth Contemporary Arts, 3050 Waits Avenue, Fort Worth, TX
🎟 All events are free, everyone is welcome

This lecture is in conjunction with "States of Being," an exhibition of lithographic prints on view at Fort Worth Contemporary Arts October 16-November 14. Artists include Ellen Berkenbilt, Jarvis Boyland, Nick Cave, Sonya Clark, Lucy Fradkin, Jeffrey Gibson, Harmony Hammond, Ellen Lesperance, José Antonio Suárez Londoño, Nikki Maloof, Liliana Porter, Robert Pruitt, Brian Rea, Maja Ruznic and Paula Wilson.

ARTIST COLLECTIVE ‘26 TEASER

Meet Kirstin Williams! She is one of the many students displaying work at Moudy Gallery’s Artist Collective Exhibition!

Kirstin gave us insight on her artwork and inspiration saying,
“My painting practice focuses on contradictions and fragmentation. I combine different ideas of beauty with more grotesque and frightening implications. I play with fragmenting the composition to extend the unsettling aspect of my work, allowing my viewers to sit with the uncomfortable nature of my subject matter.”

Kirstin Williams is joined by Caya Crum, Anastasia Dubois, Hoang Danh Doan, Charley Gonzales, Brendon Lane, Merritt Maya, Logan Michael, Josalynn Patnode, Kamron Poland, Adeola Solarin, and Maria Sotelo as artists exhibiting artwork for this year’s Artist Collective.

Artist Collective Exhibition opens Thursday October 15th till the 22nd! Exhibition reception is October 15th from 5-7, see you there!
