Title: Behind the Lines: Drawings and Objects by Michael David Hall
Description: "Behind the Lines" is an apt description for the Salt Lake Art Center's exhibition of Hall's drawings and sculptures. What happens behind, and indeed beyond, their physical presence yields the content of these works. Through his mixed-media drawings in particular, Hall endeavors to give form to his subjectivity, to literally draw it as he comes face to face with the objective world. The linear shapes, gestures, and contours of the drawings create complex infrastructures that embody personal states of innocence and discovery. They are insightful testaments to Hal's living int he moment. As transitory self-portraits, however, they ultimately defy containment of his expansive, ever-changing pursuit of knowledge. Exhibition held in the Main Gallery space.

Title: Stephen Schultz: Paintings and Drawings
Description: In viewing this exhibition, what is immediately apparent is that Schultz's paintings are over the top in the best sense of dramatic presentation. The scale of the largest paintings seem bigger than life, setting for mythic narration, where no painted form or gesture is lacking in meaning. If we equate these paintings to that of the theatrical stage, then his props are those of the painter's studio of the dream, and the painted gestures are those of the evolution of the self and the yearning for human interconnectedness. Exhibition held in the Main Gallery space.

Title: Victor Kastelic: Cloudburst
Description: A site-specific installation by Victor Kastelic. The unique relationship between the artist and Director Ric Collier is manifested in "Cloudburst," described by the artist as "...an enormous cumulus of imagery--free of filters, schemes, limits and rules that I normally apply to my paintings." This freedom is visible in the multicolored gallery walls; the 200-plus drawings taped to the wall; four large oil paintings and several drawings that were penciled directly on the wall. There sheer number of scenes, people and objects was overwhelming-- a feeling that was only enhanced by the unusual nature of the installation. Exhibition held in the Street Level Gallery space.
