posted in: News | 0

Karen Horne is honored to have her work included in this annual showcase of contemporary Utah artwork. Just under 250 pieces in a variety of media were selected by jurors from nearly a thousand in-person entries.Her richly colored restaurant painting “Reflecting” is installed in the handsome Dumke Gallery (just beyond the lobby). The exhibition runs through July 3, 2021.

Some thoughts she shared on the painting:

“On a visit to San Francisco, I observed this moody sidewalk café. I was drawn to the way the diners were cloaked in shadow under the bright pink awning… I aimed to suggest the body language of the diners, and the way the man on the right seemed lost in thought.”
