Remnants of the Plains: Albino Hinojosa

The Pearce Museum on the campus of Navarro College is pleased to present a special exhibition featuring native Texas artist Albino Hinojosa.
Remnants of the Plains is a contemplative look at the odds and ends of a past many of us have forgotten. Abandoned shells of what were once lively homesteads are set against barren landscapes that seem both expansive and isolating. To say that Hinojosa’s work falls into the category of realism is an understatement. It is impossible to deny his careful consideration of detail. Every crack and crevice, scrape, and faded paint chip is visible.
In addition, a special collection of works, entitled Old Tascosa: Cowboy Capital of the Panhandle, will also be on exhibit. Tascosa is to Texas as Tombstone is to Arizona. Hinojosa captures the remnants of town with breathtaking detail.

Remnants of the Plains and Old Tascosa will be on exhibit September 10, 2010 through January 5, 2010.
