New Partnership
Artists of Utah has recently made a new partnership with The Arts Organization, which has become a sponsor of our new "Studio Space" series, the first installment of which you see above.
"Studio Space" is a fine art project by Utah photographers exploring the personalities of artist studio spaces. In 2006, Artists of Utah and The Arts Organization will be presenting an exhibition of the "Studio Space" series in conjuction with a workshop by The Arts Organization entitled "The Organization of Space."
Artists of Utah is also happy to anounce that Dana Hagio is the new Regional Director for the Utah County area. Hagio will be coordinating our efforts to bring together the visual arts community in that area.

WHAT ARE YOU READING LATELY?
Robert Frost poetry. I don't read as many books as I used to. With poetry, you can let it sit for two or three days and then read it again and get something different from it.
WHAT IS HANGING
ABOVE YOUR MANTEL?
An original oil painting by William Forester from 1932. It's a gentleman playing the piano and a younger gentleman playing violin.
IF YOU COULD CHOOSE ANY ARTST TO PAINT OR SCULPT YOUR PORTRAIT WHO WOULD IT BE?
Vermeer. Because (sorry, Thomas Kinkaid) he was the first painter of light. And the first painter I really loved. My second choice would be Rauschenburg.
