Translation Gallery Artist Bruce Marion Installs Major Commission at Sam Houston State University


Translations Gallery Artist Bruce Marion just finished installing a major project at Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas. The work graces the entrances of the College of Humanities & Social Sciences. Bruce was chosen from hundreds of applicants for the project.

The work is part of the "Facets" and "Confluence" series and includes 19 large scale canvases that are shown in groups or pairs. Both series reflect on the ideas behind studying in the Humanities & Social Sciences. The "Confluence" series is about combining reality with creativity while the "Facets" series reflects on the idea behind duality of character and purpose.

We are proud of Bruce's wonderful accomplishment! Be sure to visit the building if you are in the area. You can also always see Bruce's work at Translations Gallery.

Bruce Marion's newest series of landscapes will be on view at Translations Gallery during the month of June.

We are proud to announce that Translations Gallery owner, Judy Hagler, was elected to the LoDo Board of Directors this week for a two year term.

Judy stated, "I am very happy to have this opportunity to become more involved in the LoDo District. There are many amazing projects going on in this neighborhood including the redevelopment of Union Station that I am excited to get involved in."

Judy is the only arts & culture board member at this time, so her voice is vital to the progression of the arts in LoDo and Downtown Denver. She is also co-chair of the LoDo Alley Cats Arts Festival, which will be taking place for the first time in 2011.
