About the Item

n Lloyd Brown’s examination of America, we see small town intersections, train crossings, and rural stretches of road, in paintings made after he traveled across the United States on Highway 50. With an inventive approach to shaping and framing his paintings—through curved surfaces, multiple panels, and overlapping images—Lloyd Brown helps us to see in new ways. About his exhibition "Cross Country on Highway 50," Lloyd Brown says: "In 2005, I began photographing US Highway 50. My focus was a section of highway known as the Loneliest Road in America that traverses Nevada. Raised in Utah and Nevada, I grew up crossing the Great Basin. My divorced parents lived at opposite ends of the 500-mile divide of mountains and valleys. Highway 50 was the connection between Fillmore, Utah, and Reno, Nevada. In 2012, I extended the highway theme to include Colorado. In Fall 2014, I covered the rest of the highway on a road trip that took me all the way to Maryland. This is not a project to be completed in a single season. It will likely involve the rest of my life, but I really like the idea of covering the breadth of the nation from the vantage point of a single highway." Lloyd Brown lived in Texas for 21 years and now resides in Utah. Valley House Gallery has presented 9 solo exhibitions of his work and published a comprehensive catalogue on his work in 2018. This is acrylic on two fabric-hinged ragboard panels on an artist-made wood and cardboard shelf.

  • Reeds and Water
    By Malou Flato

    Over the past forty years, Malou Flato’s paintings have focused on the Texas landscape—its native flowers, blooming cactus, diverse citizenry, and especially its precious water and abundant sky.
