Current Roswell artists-in-residence Ryan Crowley and Tristram Lansdowne will be showing their artwork together in a two-person exhibition entitled Wicked Wells & Window Wipeouts at the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art (AMoCA) December 6, 2024 - January 17, 2025. An artist talk, opening reception and public dinner for the artists will all take place at AMoCA on Friday, December 6.
The Roswell Artist-in-Residence (RAiR) exhibitions have traditionally been held at the Roswell Museum, but with extensive flood damage there, the RAiR exhibitions have been shifted to the Anderson Museum for the time being. In order to facilitate the ongoing scheduling of RAiR exhibitions, the RAiR alumni show Jerry West: Prairie Stories will be taken down early. The last day to see the Jerry West show will be Saturday, November 30th.
Wicked Wells & Window Wipeouts will feature the mixed media sculpture of Ryan Crowley and the watercolor paintings of Tristram Lansdowne.
