Capturing the beauty of the California coast through exquisite woodcut prints and prose, California’s Wild Edge: The Coast in Prints, Poetry, and History is a new traveling exhibition appearing at HSU’s Reese Bullen Gallery from September 1 through October 8. The exhibition features artist Tom Killion’s Japanese-style woodcut prints, which vividly portray the coast’s ever-changing moods and diverse formations. From Southern California to Humboldt County, Killion’s work colorfully captures the meeting of land and sea.
To accompany the exhibit, an artist talk by Tom Killion with poetry readings by Jerry Martien and Jim Dodge will be held on Thursday, September 22 at 5:30pm in the Authors Hall, located on the second floor of the HSU Library. A reception will follow in the Reese Bullen Gallery.
The gallery is open Monday through Wednesday from 12 to 5pm, Thursday 12 to 7pm, Friday 12 to 5pm, and Saturday 10 to 2pm, with free admission to exhibits and events.
