Local Art Seen: DAI Member Show Is Always a Favorite

The Great Hall at the Depot. Duluth Art Institute Member Show.
I don't know what the temperature was precisely, but it was cold Thursday evening. That didn't stop people from filling the parking lot with cars and the Depot with friends of the arts. Here is a representative sampling of some of the 123 pieces I saw in the Member Show.

Margaret Helstrom's Pink made me think of Matisse.
Faith Holding Hope, by Shawna Gilmore.
Shells, by Doug Dunham. Digital print on aluminum.
Days on the Wine Dark Sea #1 by Karen Nease.
Kris Nelson's Delft Influenced.


Sarah Brokke Erickson's She is the Moment Just Before.
I Believe In Chance by Adam Swansom
Matt Kania's Mr. Potato Mouth (Check out his show at the Zeitgeist before it's gone.)
Tab Benoit Sings the Blues, by William Wise
Bridges of Tischer Creek, by TJ Beaulier. Oil on wood relief.
Linda Glisson, Moving Through
Aza, by Ivy Vainio
Red Wine and Song by Ingeborg Von Agassiz

Meantime, art goes on all around you. Get into it.

    Thank you for sharing these amazing works! We had our own thing happening so couldn’t get down to see these.

    Thanks for dropping in. I don't know all the artists in town, but most of these here are people I've enjoyed following. There are, of course, a lot more on display plus the other exhibits up on the fourth floor.... so go if you are able.
