Inpost Artspace Reception:

Friday, November 5, 5-8pm

ArtsCrawl First Friday Night

The Inpost Artspace has been showing work since 1995 beginning with shows in the Back Corner Gallery at the old Outpost Performance Space and continuing in our current Space since 2000. Hundreds of artists have exhibited their work and unlike commercial galleries, Outpost has never demanded a percentage of sales. In this exhibit, we will be showing/selling work with the purpose of raising funds for the gallery/The Space. Proceeds from sales will go to Inpost/Outpost to benefit our programs. Exhibiting artists include many of the artists and curators who have shown here in the past. The show will feature smaller works in a modest price range ($150-$500). Now is an opportunity to buy some work by renowned New Mexico artists and benefit Inpost/Outpost at the same time., The artists (to whom we are very grateful) include: JB Bryan, Lauren Camp, Jim Gale, Jennifer Gardner, Linda Holland, Becky Holtzman, Karl Koenig, Jacqui Lewnes, Kai Margarida-Ramírez de Arellano, Ray Maseman, Angus MacPherson, Zach Meisner, Ben Meisner, Wayne Mikosz, David Ondrik, Alan Paine Radebaugh, Riha Rothberg, Suzanne Sbarge, Suzanne Stern, Rob Thalmann, Kevin Tolman, Greg Tucker, Mark Weber, Joan Weissman, Joshua Willis, Susan Zimmerman, and more.

East of the Bone Yard: Motorcycle Drawings by Jacqui Lewnes


Exhibit Dates: 
May 3 - May 29

Inpost Artspace Reception:

Friday, May 7, 5-8pm

ArtsCrawl First Friday Night

For Jacqui Lewnes, motorcycles represent freedom, movement, and friendships. They embody youthful memories of summer: moving through the days with the wind in her face. Now, slightly older, she rides to keep grounded. These drawings are created from a collection of her photos, toys and great memories of her first bikes. These motorcycles, like life, are not stationary nor static. The bikes shake and rattle, the kick-stands are up and it’s up to you to catch the bikes before they fall over.

Inpost Artspace Reception:

Friday, April 9, 5-8pm

presented in partnership with Old World Imports

Featuring contemporary weavings from Azerbaijan, this exhibit highlights the revival of traditional techniques nearly lost during the Soviet era. Bold patterns and vibrant colors, hallmarks of the rugs of the Caucasus, are alive once again. Select antiques will be shown as a counterpoint to the contemporary pieces. Weaving materials and background information on the art and history of Azerbaijan will also be presented. Curated by Flo Brown and Duane Bargar of Old World Imports, the show will double as a benefit for the Oupost Performance Space, with 25% of sales donated to the organization.
