Artspace111 - Journey of the Lost Lobo
Exhibition on Display:7 September - 2 November 2024
Journey of the Lost Lobo is a series of paintings created after the deaths of Blagg's
older brother Woodrow Blagg and his best friend Vernon Fisher in April of 2023. The
backdrop of many of these paintings depict the mountain Alsate, known as Pulliams Peak,
located in the Big Bend National Park. The peak depicts the profile of the brave Apache
warrior, Alsate, laying in a death like repose. Big Bend becomes a stage for a play about
death as the final act, lit by light of a full moon. The cast consists of crows, buzzards,
horses and mules. The main character is the Lost Lobo. Like a ghost he casts no shadow.
The Lobo represents those in the grip of death and the spirit of those we have lost,
reflecting Blagg's feelings about death.

Fort Works Art - Aether
Exhibition on Display: September 7, 2024 – October 5, 2024 | Works By: Erika Duque Scully
This exhibition delves into the mystical themes that have become central to Scully's work.
Inspired by the ancient Greek concept of aether—the pure, upper air breathed by the
gods—Scully's imagined compositions blur the lines between reality and fantasy, inviting
viewers into a world where nature's beauty is both familiar and mysterious. Her work,
deeply influenced by her journey into motherhood, reflects a renewed sense of wonder
and connection to the natural world, as she sees it anew through her son's eyes. In
"Aether," Scully draws inspiration from the wildflowers and plants of North Texas,
meticulously documenting her experiences in green spaces through sketches, field notes,
and photographs.

William Campbell Gallery(217 Foch St) - Blurred Lines: The Intersection of Street and Abstract Art
Exhibition on Display: September 7 – October 12, 2024 | Work by DESMOND MASON
We would like to celebrate William Campbell Gallery's 50th year as a pillar in the Fort
Worth art community. Established in 1974 by Bill and Pam Campbell, the Gallery has
consistently fostered an understanding and admiration for the dynamic diversity inherent
in contemporary art. Guided first by the Campbells and now by the Fort Worth Contemporary
Art Partners, the Gallery has evolved in both size and esteem over the years. We hope
that our Fort Worth community sees the Gallery as we do—a cultural institution dedicated
to art education and a hub for the cultivation and appreciation of artistic expression.

J. Peeler Howell Fine Art - mystic sea
Exhibition: September 7th - November 2nd, 2024
In this new body of work I am creating from a direct connection to the planet's oceans
and a research framework centered on interconnected systems known as hyper-objects.
Across every painting in this exhibition the sea is present, often the primary focus but
also as a backdrop to another moment or events. The paintings echo the rich history of
landscape painting, frequently incorporate direct references from paintings and a
myriad of artists such as Vija Celmins, Gerhard Richter, Caspar Friedrich,
Winslow Homer, Hokusai, J.M.W. Turner, Frederic Edwin Church, Inka Essenhigh, and
Edvard Munch.The paintings in mystic sea (primarily oil and wax on linen) allude to
sublime moments, connecting us to spaces that feel simultaneously real & unreal.

Fort Worth Public Art - For Better Life
In memoriam: Floyd Newsum (1950 – 2024). Over Mr. Newsum’s extensive career, he gave back
to communities through art. Entitled For Better Life, his public artwork commissioned by
the City of Fort Worth for the Hazel Harvey Peace Center is a representative of his
animated painting style and underscores the value and fun of family and community
engagement. Each of the vibrant scenes supports the values of excellence and fair play,
themes modeled by Hazel Harvey Peace, the important African American educator and
community activist for whom the Center is named.
