Allison Glenn of the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art serves as the exhibit鈥檚 guest curator. The exhibit will feature Livaudais鈥� installation, 鈥淎ll That I Love,鈥� which consists of 1,500 origami paper beetles of varying sizes made of aluminum, pigment ink, resin, and mulberry paper that will be installed floor to ceiling by the artist. 鈥淚 am a professor of photography, so each of those beetles is folded from a photograph,鈥� Livaudais said. 鈥淭he idea is that each image captures a special moment of beauty, something that you care about deeply. That鈥檚 why the installation is called 鈥楢ll That I Love.鈥� Some of the images are recruited from other artists. When people send me images, it鈥檚 of things they love, like their kids.鈥� As a compliment to the traveling 鈥淎rkansas Women to Watch鈥� exhibit, 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock will also host an exhibit of 鈥淎rkansas Women from the 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock Permanent Collection.鈥� The exhibit will be open from Jan. 29 to March 12 in the Brad Cushman Gallery Annex in the Windgate Center.
