Foote Gallery | Free Admission
Artist Lecture and Reception: Friday, March 15, 6 - 8 pm

Deetz explores new possibilities between a complex interface of painting, textiles, and digital technology while producing an end product that maintains the richness of slow work wrought by hand. Deetz’ paintings good-humoredly deconstruct imagery from pop, outsider, and high culture to create new “spaces” of meaning through the use of dark humor, visual puns, symbols and metaphors, moments of silence, art historical allusions, cultural collisions, and spiritual conundrums to play with style and pictorial/formal construction.

Kristy Deetz is a professor emerita at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. Her extensive exhibition record includes national and international venues. She frequently serves as a visiting artist and has led numerous painting/drawing workshops.
