    FOUND:RE Contemporary and FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel are excited to announce the opening of their new exhibition, “XSCAPE: Landscapes, Cityscapes and Mindscapes,” with support provided by Artlink Inc. This exhibition cycle presents the work of 64 Arizona artists and showcases their exploration of a variety of landscape motifs, both realistic and imagined.

    The exhibition debuts on Saturday, July 17 with an opening reception from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The exhibition is open to the public and remains on display through Sunday, November 14.

     

    “We’re so excited to debut our latest exhibition, which features such a wide range of incredible talent,” says FOUND:RE Contemporary Curator Audrey Galat. “We love playing an active role in the Phoenix arts community and giving new and veteran artists alike a platform for their masterpieces.”

     

    Presented as part of FOUND:RE Contemporary’s regular schedule of rotating exhibitions organized by Galat, the exhibition encompasses the entire ground floor of the FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel, allowing for social distancing while giving art lovers the opportunity to view it at their leisure, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. For those that prefer a more in-depth viewing experience, Galat is available for private tours, which can be arranged via www.eventbrite.com/e/foundre-art-tour-tickets-151706936531.

    More than 60 artists and their works are included in the exhibition. A complete list of artists and their works, the majority of which are for sale, can be previewed and purchased via www.foundrecontemporary.com.

     

    Each artist featured in the exhibition has an opportunity to win a staycation at the FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel. The winning artist will be announced on the FOUND:RE Contemporary social media pages and website July 17 to coincide with the opening day of the exhibition.

     

    Debuting during the opening reception on July 17, “Fire/Earth: A Metal and Fiber Landscape Show,” featuring Aryana Londir and Joan Waters, is the first of two landscape exhibitions spotlighting how natural elements are used in art. “Fire/Earth” brings together two elemental forces and celebrates how these forces of nature can be used to create unconventional landscape art. Through the use of cotton (earth), fiber artist Aryana Londir creates depictions of dynamic cityscapes through the soft material of fabric. Using another element (fire), Joan Waters creates intricate scenes of nature through the forging and welding of metalwork.

     

    This exhibition, coinciding with the opening of “XSCAPE: Landscapes, Cityscapes and Mindscapes,” will be featured at the FOUND:RE Contemporary Gallery off Portland Street through Saturday, September 18. It can be viewed Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Appointments not necessary; guests can stop by the FOUND:RE Phoenix Hotel’s front desk for entry.

    Admission to the July 17 opening reception is free; tickets can be reserved via www.eventbrite.com/e/opening-xscape-landscapes-cityscapes-and-mindscapes-tickets-161556988301.
