Steve Korhfage Opening

Steve talking about some of his experiences shooting the IUSARTCAR process.

Steve opened an exhibition of 26 images from his bigger portfolio of the IUSART car participants and process.  The opening was pretty well attended in spite of it being Sunday night, cold, and snowy. However, the paternal side of me was disappointed that most of Steve's artcar brothers and sisters did not show, but that didn't seem to dampen the warm welcome from the Library Host/Hostess, Marty Rosen and Nancy Totten.  They have been tremendous in their support of all of our students and their creative expression, even one in the form of a community-built car and its documentation.  All the studio faculty were in attendance, and the IUSARTCAR made a special appearance in support of Steve's debut exhibition.  Arrangements will be made to have a several day visit by the car during part of the exhibit and we hope to have it parked by the front doors of the Library.  Congratulations, Steve, and thank you, Nancy and Marty.

STEVE'S TAKE: A PORTFOLIO and A DATE!


Steve has finished installing an exhibition of his IUSARTCAR photos in the Library Gallery. The exhibition opening reception will be Sunday, January 25, from 6:00 - 8:00.  The art car will be in attendance for the opening. In Steve's own words:"...tell you mothers, tell your fathers, tell your sisters and your brothers; I want the whole world to see this thing."
