Dang/Packer: VAC: August/September
I am excited to show my big paintings that I have been working on at the VAC in Boise. Join us for an opening shindig Friday, August 5th from 7-10pm. Show runs through September.
From the press release:
"Where Packer’s early works showed recognizable figures, some elevated to sainthood as in her popular “ 40 Saints” series from 2007-2008, her recent work has been less representational. She traces the beginnings of the abstraction to the piece “Head Below” from the 2011 Idaho Triennial. Other recent works, shown at Bricolage in March and Enso Art Space in May, have been smaller pieces, component parts that combine and coalesce into larger wholes. For the VAC show, she is creating new large-scale paintings, the largest she has shown in Boise: These, she says, are those wholes."

In addition, Enso Artspace hosts art-related events such as lectures, performances and guest exhibitions. We have been hard at work preparing for our inaugural opening which will be held on May 13th.
