The ARTx3 Campus invites the public to a free opening reception for the exhibition “Glimmer” by Heidi Carlsen-Rogers from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22, at The Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas, 701 S. Main St. in Pine Bluff. This exhibition is sponsored by the Kline Family Foundation.

Carlsen-Rodgers’s exhibition provides a backdrop to relax the mind through a set of large-scale floral tapestries using psychologically uplifting and calming colors and subject matter. This tranquil exhibition uses various sky hues to simulate a soothing passage of time in the garden. Visitors are invited to recall positive memories or "glimmers" and immerse themselves to relieve stress and anxiety and to promote their general well-being.

This exhibition will remain on view through Friday, Jan. 10, 2025. Gallery viewing is free. For more information, contact Kevin Haynie at khaynie@artx3.org or call 870-536-3375.

The ARTx3 Campus invites the community to view its new Permanent Collections exhibition “Matters of Abstraction,” featuring decades of distinct two-dimensional and three-dimensional abstract art styles.

Visitors will be welcomed to a breadth of abstract works that include subjects and non-representational art. Discover various mark-making techniques that create textures on the canvas, careful color choices that provide subtle gradation, focus and repeating patterns and the use of a variety of lighting situations.

The ARTx3 Campus houses more than 1,400 artworks within its Permanent Collection, a curated cultural crossroad of Southeast Arkansas’s visual history. Through continued stewardship, the community can enjoy art through different perspectives for free year-round.

This exhibition is on view in the International Paper Gallery in the Arts & Science Center for Southeast Arkansas, 701 S. Main St. in Pine Bluff, through Saturday, March 1.
