LINCOLN
- Logan County Arts and the Lincoln Art Institute are currently
gearing up for their August exhibit, “Artful Disarray”. The show
will debut with a reception from 5 to 8 p.m. on Thursday, August 9
at the Lincoln Art Institute, 112 S. McLean St, Lincoln.

For this show LCA members will have a chance to
present new media and styles and to display works that did not fit
any of the group’s recent themes. With this freedom of approach
there are sure to be some interesting surprises in the gallery.
Experienced photographers Bev Noble and Mitch Douglas know that many
photographs owe their quality not to careful planning but to the
ability to record a spontaneous moment. Noble says, “Sometimes I
have to pull the car over to capture a unique view or a dramatic
change in the light. It’s not something you can come back to later –
that view will never be the same again.” The results of this
dedication are apparent in her ethereal photos Lighter Than Air and
On a Clear Day.
In addition to his formal studies of the female model, Douglas will
show action images of the diving Dock Dogs that performed on the
Square earlier this summer. Other art on display will include
acrylics, pastels and mixed media pieces from artists Sharon Fak,
Jason Hoffman, Pam Moriearty, and Moses Pinkerton, as well as work
from several guest artists. Some of these pieces will have spent the
previous week on display at the Logan County Fair.
After the initial reception, the “OPEN” flag flying
in front of the Institute will indicate when the gallery is open.
Otherwise, the show will be available for viewing until early
September by appointment.

Visitors may ring the doorbell, and if Pinkerton is available he
will open the gallery. For an appointment, people may call Pinkerton at
217-651-8355.
Also available at the “Artful Disarray” opening will be information on the
September, 2018 invited exhibit of a photography collection of Patrick Moore.
The show will feature prints of the old American West made from glass negatives
taken by renowned early 20th Century photographer Howard Clinton Tibbitts.
