The first solo exhibition in more than a decade from Bruce Burris ~ multi-media artist/founder & coordinator of ELandFGallery Small Projects Accelerator/ co-founder of Latitude Artist Community/ all-around invaluable asset to the Lexington community & art scene.
"This amalgam of new work includes sculpture, drawing, painting and installation dealing with the subjects of mountaintop removal, rural-Southern community dynamics and the tremendous importance of activism in function of these movements. These issues have traditionally been treated as geographically specific concerns but are increasingly viewed as essential aspects of the larger 'green movement.'
Burris, a native of Delaware, is working with this material as an interested observer, employing an established aesthetic to further these broadening conversations visually and intellectually. Burris’ visual material is structured as scaffolding supported by language and carries an immense potential for both action and interaction."

Jacob Isenhour’s Living in Grandmom’s Basement
Friday, 15 January 2010: Gallery Closing Party
7pm - 11pm
"Land of Tomorrow Gallery presents LIVING IN GRANDMOM’S BASEMENT, an installation exhibit by Lexington artist Jacob Isenhour that presents the found objects of the artists' grandmother's basement in conjunction with a painterly eye for the aesthetic potential of everyday space. Isenhour works to define the gallery, conceptually and otherwise, in relation to the tension between the lines of an unfinished holding area and a space where art is created and displayed. The artist describes the show as “…visually pleasing contemporary art for the layman,” and his exhibit will be showing in conjunction with Jaye Rhee's video installation work."
