Framing History

I recently gave an artist's talk in Stillwater, OK at the new Postal Museum. Here's a little article about my work...http://m.stwnewspress.com/mobile/
Artist Talk: Mike Wimmer, Framing History (Stillwater)Framing History: Highlights from the Oklahoma State Capitol Senate Collection celebrates artists and their process for capturing the narrative. Co-curated by Senator Charles Ford and Victoria Rowe Berry, this exhibition recognizes artists who, with a stroke of paint, capture stories as well as create an impression of a historic event. The frames – works of art themselves – provide an opportunity to focus on each individual piece and create a window into a moment in time. In this particular collection, the frames create a window into a historical event.

After Framing History leaves the Postal Plaza Gallery, the Oklahoma Senate Collection will be officially transferred into the State’s records and will no longer travel. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to view selections from the Oklahoma State Capitol Collection at the Postal Plaza Gallery in Stillwater. We are honored to share the history and culture of Oklahoma while also celebrating the process of making art and telling stories.

Throughout the exhibition, the OSU Museum of Art will host artist talks from a select group of artists whose work is featured. Check our website as we add details about upcoming programming.
