Benefiting the Memphis Child Advocacy Center
February 13, 2010
The 18th Works of Heart Valentine Auction on February 13th promises to inspire and entertain everyone who attends. With Joe Birch of Action News 5 as emcee, and remarkable works of art to bid on during the silent auction, Works of Heart is a great party. And it all benefits the Child Advocacy Center. For 18 years, more than 100 "Heartists" are given a plain piece of heart-shaped wood as inspiration to create a work of art. The results are inventive and awe-inspiring. Artists include Dolph Smith, John McIntire, Freida Hamm, David Mah, and John Robinette. Proceeds help provide child-friendly intervention for children who have been sexually abused or severely physically abused.

So Forgotten will run for one night only! The reception for the artist will be on Friday, February 12, 2010 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.
A Memphis native, Laurie Nye received her BFA from Memphis College of Art in 1995 and went on to do her graduate studies at the prestigious California Institute of the Arts in Los Angeles. She has shown locally at Delta Axis @ Marshall Arts as well as at Perry Nicole Fine Art. She has shown her work nationally at I-20 Gallery in New York and at Karyn Lovegrove Gallery in Los Angeles. Her work has been featured in Artforum.com, LA Weekly, and New American Paintings. She has a show scheduled for the gallery at Watkins School of Art and Design in Nashville. Nye lives and works in Los Angeles.
About the show the artist writes:
“So Forgotten explores an American notion of naturalism that draws inspiration from 19th century printmaking, storybooks, symbolist painting, and the writings of Thoreau, Jules Vernes and Lewis Caroll and J. K. Huysmans. The series of paintings conclude in a visual narrative where words are scattered and animals and humans lurk in the shadows of a verdant landscape that time has overlooked. This fictional landscape heralds deeper, darker meanings than the light palette would suggest. While I go about dreaming of this nature fantasy, my literal environment is a sprawling metropolis where the environment is bounded by concrete and smog.”
