Praxis Gallery Presents Three New Exhibitions & Special Artist Talk and Book Release
This event is free and open to the public. Guests are invited to mingle with artists and fellow photography enthusiasts while exploring four galleries of contemporary photographic art. Complimentary refreshments will be served. The exhibitions feature 25 Minnesota artists, alongside photographers from 21 other states and 8 foreign countries.
The exhibitions will be on view from February 15 – March 8, 2025.
Gallery 1: Open Theme
Praxis Gallery presents photographic art across all genres and subject matters that represent the artists' endeavors to reveal a personal declaration of visual significance—whether through aesthetic formalism, humor, conflict, fiction, fact, or other manifestations.
Gallery 2: The Artist Intervenes
This exhibition showcases photographic and lens-based artwork that goes beyond traditional photographic processes. Artists have physically manipulated images through sewing, cutting, drawing, painting, tearing, bending, and weaving—interrogating the materiality of the photographic print to create new realities. Curated by Aline Smithson
Gallery 3: Fargo Street + Artist Talk & Book Release
By: W. Scott Olsen
"Fargo, North Dakota is the muse for W. Scott Olsen's black and white meditation on the richness of human experience in all its raw and unfiltered beauty… In the end, what emerges is a black-and-white celebration of life in all its colors—a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the enduring beauty of nature, and the interconnectedness of all things."
—Ami Vitale
Artist Talk & Book Release: February 15, 2025, at 5 PM
Join W. Scott Olsen as he discusses the inspiration behind his latest work and new book. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with the artist, ask questions, and purchase signed copies of his book.
