"THE STARVING ARTIST"
What artist does or does not have the power to create and build his own world beyond that of the common critic, the art dealers of local galleries and or museums? What artist can or can not truly reflect on life and completely escape fear and entrapment of our social foundations of law, religion and culture?. What artist is willing to express his or her own thoughts or ideas without grasping a breath of awareness of what has already been done and set us more free......... (GT)....
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL TAOB READERS.......

“Peripheral Visions,” an exhibit by senior art students from the University of Texas at Brownsville , will be displayed on December 4th, 2007 through December 10th, 2007 at the new Rusteberg Art Gallery . The show will open on October December 4th at 6:30 P.M. Admission is $3.00. Semester passes are available for all UTB students for $5.00. Admission is free to all Patron of the Arts members.
The show will include a variety of 2-D and 3-D works recently created by students Fatima Lai, Juan Hurtado , Daniel J. Nunez, and William David Hockaday. Each student has spent the past semester preparing for this exhibit and has placed every ounce of creativity and strength into their work. “Peripheral Visions” is a collection of “modern abstractions created by Senior Artists,” in the words of our senior students, and is sure to make an impression.
Artist Statements:
“I can say most of my paintings and ceramic pieces are from my ideas, thoughts and perceived notions behind the concepts of life, death and the afterlife. They are about saying something like a feeling; expressing one’s emotions. It’s not just about feeling them, but about understanding them. Knowing why you are feeling that way and why you should listen to yourself.
-Fátima Lai
“Form is everything.” - Juan Hurtado
