Arts Allen True's West: Installation
Posted by Edie Adelstein on Fri, Nov 5, 2010 at 2:10 PM
I interviewed Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center museum director Blake Milteer yesterday on the upcoming Allen True's West show. Here are some shots of the main gallery, mid-installation.

- Mural studies on the back wall.
Milteer says the paintings, prints and mural studies were left in their shipping crates for a few days to allow the works to adjust to the local humidity (or lack thereof). This is a common practice with traveling exhibits.

- Original paintings used for illustrations in books and magazines.
Surprisingly, the FAC has no work from True in its permanent collection. “One day we’ll rectify that,” says Milteer.

- A large portion of a mural.
Allen True's West opens Thursday, Nov. 11, with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Read a full preview of this show in next week's Indy.
