On view from September 6 – November 9. \nPainting in untraditional cut-outs\, Sarah Tenney and Jenna Annunziato explore relationships with others as well as to the things with which we surround ourselves. The pairing reflects the duality between the two artists: one orbiting nostalgia in the forgotten\, and false divinity; the other exploring connection\, conflict\, and intervention. \nBesides the shininess\, the commonalities among Annunziato’s objects lie in their value\, or lack thereof. Beautiful and broken objet d’art are portals to memories and counterfeit faith. Tenney steps into allegory using magical realism in her gentle depictions. Animals and people interact in moments fraught with disconnection and the tenuous understanding of others. Altogether this exhibition depicts tangible and intangible fragile things that fill the human experience. \nJenna Annunziato earned a BFA from SUNY and comes to Foothills Art Center having shown in exhibits across the country and with several residencies under her belt. Sarah Tenney earned her BFA from MSU Denver and has worked as a professional artist for almost 2 decades. Her collectors can be found across the Americas\, Europe\, and Australia. \nFree to attend! All welcome. \nSaturday 8 November\, 2-3pm \n1133 Arapahoe St\, Golden CO URL:https://foothillsartcenter.org/event/artist-talk-with-sarah-tenney-jenna-annunziato/ LOCATION:CO CATEGORIES:Astor House END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20251110 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20251121 DTSTAMP:20251103T183301Z CREATED:20251103T180509Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251103T183301Z UID:10001653-1762732800-1763683199@foothillsartcenter.org SUMMARY:Foothills Art Center - Astor House Closed for Installation DESCRIPTION: URL:https://foothillsartcenter.org/event/foothills-art-center-astor-house-closed/ LOCATION:CO END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Denver:20251112T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Denver:20251112T150000 DTSTAMP:20251030T213852Z CREATED:20251030T210538Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251030T213852Z UID:10001642-1762952400-1762959600@foothillsartcenter.org SUMMARY:Be Bold.
