From the organizers:
“In partnership with the West Texas A&M University Art Program, Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum is excited to announce the return of the Regional Art Faculty Show, a prestigious exhibition showcasing the artistic talents of faculty from colleges and universities throughout the region. After a brief hiatus, this year’s exhibition will be hosted by the Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum (PPHM) and curated by PPHM’s Curator of Art, Deana Craighead. The show runs from October 4, 2024 to January 5, 2025, with an opening reception on October 4 at 6:00pm. In previous years, the WTAMU Art Program organized an invitational exhibition that highlighted the creative practices of regional art faculty. Reviving this cherished tradition, the upcoming show will feature contemporary artworks in various media, reflecting the dynamic artistic voices within our educational institutions. “This exhibition is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with the creative community and celebrate the talent of our region’s art educators,” said Deana Craighead, curator of art. “The collaboration with WTAMU & PPHM not only enhances the exhibition space but also elevates the prestige of the event.” Participating schools include: Amarillo College, Angelo State University, Eastern New Mexico University, Institute of American Indian Arts, Midwestern State University, New Mexico Highlands University, South Plains College, Texas Tech University, and West Texas A&M University.

Satellite Art Show has announced that it will host an Art Fair in Austin in 2025 during the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival, taking place March 7-15.
Founded in 2015, Satellite is a New York-based artist-run platform that presents projects in Miami, New York, and Austin. In 2019, the Satellite Art Show debuted in Austin at the Museum of Human Achievement. However, this will be the first time it has returned to the city since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 SXSW.
This year, the organization is presenting Satellite Ranch, an art fair on a 10-acre property located at 719 Shady Lane, across from Hi-Sign Brewery in East Austin. Satellite Ranch will feature public installations on the grounds and exhibitions inside four homes.

The Institute for Contemporary Art (ICA), Miami, is currently presenting Keiichi Tanaami: Memory Collage, the first solo museum exhibition of the acclaimed Japanese artist in the United States. Tanaami (July 21, 1936 – August 9, 2024) is well known in Japan for a six-decade career bridging American and Japanese post-war pop art through his disorienting psychedelic collage style. The show is organised by ICA Miami and is on view from November 21, 2024 – March 30, 2025. It is curated by Alex Gartenfeld, the institute’s Irma and Norman Braman Artistic Director, along with Gean Moreno, director of Art + Research Center, ICA Miami. The curators join STIR for an interview that explores Tanaami’s articulation of pop culture and the link between his work and traditional Japanese art forms.Tanaami often featured popular Japanese and American fictional and real characters as a means of highlighting the influence of mass media on our collective psyches.– Alex Gartenfeld, Irma and Norman Braman Artistic Director, ICA Miami
Tanaami’s work is heavily informed by his experiences growing up in Japan during and after the Second World War, as he was haunted by childhood memories of time spent in air raid shelters during American bombing runs. Symbols of violence, ranging from real-world firearms and American bomber jets to fantastical depictions of alien invasions, are spread throughout his oeuvre. The artist mashed these up with sexual imagery, particularly of the sort seen in older editions of American adult magazines such as Playboy (he would also spend time as the first art director of Japan’s Monthly Playboy, which ran from 1975 – 2009). Tanaami’s art also prominently features popular American and Japanese characters, such as Mickey Mouse and Ultraman.
Funun Arts Group, Youth Creative Minds Hub, and Young Times are excited for the fourth annual Student Art Show (ASAS) 2024, a spectacular showcase of young talent and artistic expression. This year’s event, themed “art and innovation,” will take place on November 9 and 10 at Study World, Dubai Academic City.
ASAS 2024 brings together over 1,000 young artists aged 5 to 25 to explore the dynamic relationship between art and technology. The event will feature a diverse range of artistic expressions, including painting, sculpture, digital art, and mixed media. Attendees can expect to be amazed by the creativity and innovation displayed by these talented young individuals.
