Deborah Oropallo - "George" 2008

2 summer shows at the Fort Collins Museum of Contemporar Art:

The Magnolia Tapestry Project features a variety of well known artists working in the medium of fabric; highlights include work by Deborah Oropallo (featured at Robischon back in October of 2007) and Chuck Close whose signature self-portrait really takes well to the medium.

On the 2nd floor is an exhibit titled "Patriotism: the Last Refuge" featuring works by Denver artist Tony Ortega as well as interesting photography by Christopher Morris whose lens penetrates his subjects, reducing them to icons of their environments which include churches, schools and political events in the DC area.

Both shows are on display until September 20th and if your travels take you to points north, the detour to FCMOCA is certainly worth the trip.
