This October, the Art World was busy exploring Frieze London and Art Basel Paris where collectors, gallerists, and artists mingled in the ether of hoped-for big sales. That was not for me. Instead, I went to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to attend the second annual Tulsa Artist Fellowship Open House weekend.
Tulsa Artist Fellowship’s second annual Open House 2024 embodied our commitment to nurturing Tulsa and its visionary artistic practitioners. Programs fostered interconnectedness through community care and collaboration. This celestial arts-centered weekend featured exhibitions on view, site-specific installations, performances, readings, panel discussions, film screenings, open studios, art and literary publications, community meals, and more.
Tulsa International Airport is proud to announce the completion of a stunning new hanging art installation in front of its TSA security checkpoint. Created by Tulsa-based artist Shane Darwent, the piece, titled “Sunrising,” completely transforms the airport’s main hall with a series of 34 colored-resin panels that transition through the color spectrum of a sky from sunrise to sunset.
As we prepare to welcome the new year, the Tulsa Artist Fellowship community has reflected on all that has been accomplished in 2023. From influential exhibitions to groundbreaking publication launches, irreverent film series to shattering performances, it's been a year marked by studio process, collaboration, and commitment to nurturing Tulsa. We look forward to the visionary projects and presentations ahead!
