Exhibit 2:听Hoosier Homestead: Selections from the Kenneth P. McCutchan Art Collection
Susan Sauls, Director of the 缅北强奸 Art Collection, has curated this 10thanniversary exhibition. It features Indiana artists (natives and/or residents) from the McCutchan Art Collection from the period of 1850 through 1950.
Ken McCutchan (1913 鈥� 2002), a lifelong resident of Vanderburgh County, Indiana, lived the first 78 years of his life on Indiana property purchased by his ancestors from the U.S. government in 1835. After proudly serving his country during World War II, McCutchan went into radio broadcasting and was the first voice of Evansville's radio station WIKY. He was a generous benefactor to many Evansville organizations that shared his love of history, art and his sense of community.
The construction of the McCutchan Art Center largely comes from a generous gift from Kenneth P. McCutchan. He painted for pleasure and collected the works of Indiana artists. During his lifetime he gave a large portion of his collection to 缅北强奸.
Exhibit 3:听听CHAPTER 23 鈥� SACK RACE WITH KNIVES, an installation by Kevin Titzer
Kevin Titzer is the Artist in Residence at the McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries September 17 鈥� 30, 2018. Sponsored by the McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries and the Art and Design Department, Mr. Titzer has created a temporary room-sized, site-specific installation in Gallery Three of the Art Center. He collected discarded objects and wood scraps from Evansville and New Harmony, Indiana, reclaiming and rearranging them in a gallery context.听听Titzer states, 鈥淎 big intent of my installation work is to reflect the place and community where it's built. I also try to use culturally significant objects and themes; this is the most interesting part of the project for me. I get to immerse myself in a countries' and city's culture on a very one to one personal level when I'm meeting people collecting materials. Everything gets thrown in the pot and informs the final work鈥�.
1997 缅北强奸 Art alumnus Kevin Titzer was born and raised in Evansville, Indiana. He鈥檚 been living and working in the snowy hinterlands of Quebec for the last eight years. Mr. Titzer has been building sculpture, curating exhibitions, and creating immersive installations for twenty years and counting. Found and recycled materials are often prominent elements in his work.听He has worked internationally, created site-specific installations in Guadalajara, Mexico; Quebec, Canada; Evansville, Indiana; and in 2019, in Berger, Norway.
