Reception: April 26
10 am -12 pm at the Mid-Valley Campus Library
The South Texas College Mid-Valley Campus Library Art Gallery presents “Colorful Paradise,” a mixed-media art exhibition by artist Gerardo Medina.
Medina earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the Art Institute of Dallas in 1991 before returning to McAllen and starting an advertising firm. Medina creates art without boundaries, developing an emotional process with each piece and never sketching first. Using strong illustrative images, bold colors, and abstract backgrounds, each of Medina’s artwork is a puzzle piece that tells stories of his past and present.
There will be an exhibition reception on April 26 from 10 a.m. to noon during the library’s annual Open House. Medina will be present to discuss his artwork and answer questions.
The exhibit opened on Tuesday, February 21, and will be on view until July 21, 2023. The display will be at the STC Mid-Valley Campus Library Art Gallery, E-1.210, located at 400 N. Border in Weslaco. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.
The South Texas College Library Art Gallery organizes exhibitions and educational programs to engage student understanding of art, support the academic curriculum and inspire continued education through direct engagement with artists, scholars, and original works of art.
