Unhinged: Works by Amy Reckley

Artist Talk and Opening Reception on Thursday, November 7th at 4pm in Kinnison Hall and the Edward A. Whitney Gallery at the Whitney Center for the Arts.

Free.

Amy Reckley is a multidisciplinary artist working in drawing, painting, screen printing, and installation art. Her work investigates ways of building up and tearing down surfaces. This action is her inquiry into the complex language of contemporary drawing and painting as both noun and verb.

Reckley has exhibited throughout the United States and internationally. She has recently installed site-related works at the Michigan Legacy Art Park in Thompsonville, Michigan, the Big Santa Anita Canyon, California and at The Symphony in the Foothills Gallery in Kansas. Other significant exhibitions include The Soap Factory in Minneapolis, the Loveland Feed and Grain in Colorado, and the Saugatuck Center for the Arts in Michigan. Her residency awards include the Barstow Artist-in-Residence at Central Michigan University, ART342, and Ox-Bow School of Art & Artists’ Residency.

Amy Reckley received her MFA in Drawing from Colorado State University, a Post- Baccalaureate Certificate in Painting and Serigraphy from SACI College of Art & Design in Florence, Italy, and a BA from Kalamazoo College. She lives and works in Michigan.
