Visitors to UNLV's Marjorie Barrick Museum will have a chance to experience the work of Northern Nevada artists who took over downtown Reno last summer for what they called "a celebration of Reno's unlimited potential for absurdity."
"Selections from the Dada Motel" features the work of 28 artists--representing media ranging from photography and animation, to sculpture and eggs--who participated in an independently organized three-day celebration of Reno art, dubbed "The Dada Motel," last summer. Participants rented hotel rooms in and around the El Cortez Hotel in downtown Reno and organized eclectic displays of their work by turning the rooms into impromptu art galleries.
The exhibit runs from Jan. 25 through March 21 and is curated by Dada Motel participant Chad Sorg. Admission to the Barrick Museum is free. For more information, including a complete list of artists represented in the exhibit, contact Aurore Gig
