Evan Dent
Straight Shooter



Mr. Dent's exhibition transforms the attic space of the Silverland Gallery into a montage of cartoon history.

In his Reno News & Review article, local arts writer Brad Bynum explains: "Artist Evan Dent picked stills from old, public domain 1910s and ’20s cartoons and projected them onto the walls of the gallery. Using charcoal, he filled in the drawings directly onto the walls of the gallery, adding or subtracting images as he saw fit, and obsessively worked and reworked the surfaces."

"The RTC [Regional Transportation Commission], City of Las Vegas and Clark County, worked with local artists to add artistic enhancements to the new ACE rapid transit shelter windscreens at seven locations. Their imagery evokes ideas about Las Vegas history and iconography. TRIFECTA is exhibiting the current works from these artists in order to show the development in the studio since the beginning of the Stop n Glow Bus Shelter Project. In tandem, the Stop n Glow exhibit at the Contemporary Arts Center shows the process on how an artists work can translate into public art projects."
