3.30.10: Today's Guest

Today on "The Lisa D Show" we'll interview Melissa Barba-Espinosa, Gallery Curator & Educational Specialist for the Ysleta Independent School District.

Part of her job is to manage the Galeria Senecu, which most recently opened a retrospective in honor of Susan Klahr who passed away this January. Klahr was a painter and this is the first of what is expected to be several retrospectives of her work. Today we'll talk about Melissa's involvement in the retrospective and her greater role as education specialists for YISD. The video posted in this blog was recorded of Melissa at the opening reception for Susan Klahr.

3.27.10: Sue Klahr Retrospective Opening Reception

Last night I attended the opening reception for "Susan Klahr: A Retrospective" at the YISD Fine Arts Gallery, Galeria Senecu, showcasing from March 25-April 23, 2010. Family and friends were in attendance as Arlo & Aisling performed live music from their newest album. The show features more than 50 paintings created by Klahr during her lifetime, mostly autobiographical portraits and several large format allegorical paintings. The show is extremely well curated and has three distinct sections/phases of Klahr's works. Open until April 23, make the trek down Alameda to see the works.
