Outdoor Lighted Installations Welcome Summer at Fairfield First Fridays July 5
Three new art exhibitions and a solar-powered lighted installation on the square will welcome visitors to Fairfield First Fridays on July 5, 6 to 10 p.m. An opening reception for abstract work by three Iowa City artists opens at ICON Gallery, 58 N. Main St., 6:30–10:00 p.m. “Iowa City has a wealth of talented artists,” says ICON Director Bill Teeple. “Three veteran artists from that community are Laura Young, Nancy Purington, and Anita Jung, all abstract artists. However, no matter how abstract and nonobjective the art becomes, the work can’t escape reference to the outer and inner worlds. Their work hits you with a powerful aesthetic experience of color and form, but each also delivers deep poetic, emotional, and metaphysical content.”
