Mini art crawl tonight at Kaddatz, M State [UPDATED]

Published 9:59am Thursday, January 24, 2013 Updated 12:02pm Thursday, January 24, 2013

Two great artists at two great venues for one great night. M State Fergus Falls instructors Lori Charest and J. Charles Cox are both exhibiting their work this month.

Charest at the Beck Gallery at M State and Cox at the Kaddatz Gallery downtown, and tonight there will be receptions for both. Start the night at M State from 4 to 6 p.m., and then head downtown to the Kaddatz Gallery for a reception and artists talk with J. Charles Cox from 6 to 8 p.m.

Cox’s present exhibition at the Kaddatz, “An Area of Import,” will be up through Feb. 9.

The show consists of the repeated image of a woman, with her face and head altered in various ways to suggest historic martial, mechanical, ritualistic, and monarchic headwear/headdresses. The subject of the woman, although the same in each image, takes on the cultural or ethnic identity suggested by the different marks applied to the surface.

Cox joined the faculty at M State Fergus Falls in the fall of 2012.
