RMCAD's Philip J. Steele Gallery Presents 'A Clumped Charm'

DENVER, May 1, 2018 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Philip J. Steele Gallery at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design (RMCAD) is thrilled to present A Clumped Charm on May 17. Guest-curated by Paul Keefe and Brooke Tomiello, the exhibition will feature artworks by 14 Colorado-based artists, and will remain on display through June 29. An opening reception will be held on May 17 from 4 to 8 p.m. and is free and open to the public.

The artists included in A Clumped Charm are united in their playful processes and their unique senses of humor. The title of the show, an anagram of artist Marcel Duchamp's name, reflects the absurd and experimental spirit of the works on display. The exhibition will include a variety of works from artists working in sculpture, painting, video, ceramics, and printmaking.

Participating artists include Theresa Anderson, Jennifer Arnold, Masha Asha, Bradley Benedetti, Michael Beitz, Mark Bueno, Chris Bristow, Eric Corrigan, Ian Fischer, Sam Harvey, Clay Hawkley, Jessica Langley, Steve Meyer, and John Roemer.

The exhibition's curators, Keefe and Tomiello, are founders and co-curators of Grand Opening, an artist-run space in Denver, Colo. Keefe has exhibited his artwork at RMCAD and Lane Meyer Projects, and most recently attended a residency at the Atlantic Center for the Arts in New Smyrna Beach, Fla. Tomiello previously worked at Louis B. James Gallery in New York City and co-founded Youme Haus in Brooklyn. She also curates shows independently throughout the Denver area.
