The Madison Center for the Arts, a local performing arts venue, welcomes Bryson Bost’s “Into the Wild: A Journey of Mindfulness, Imagination, and Presence,” running from Aug. 5 through Dec. 20.
The Gallery at The Madison is an art exhibition space featuring pieces by local and national artists, including works from Alisha Marie Anglin, Holly Anderson and Elena Pierson, according to a press release.
Mr. Bost is a maximalist painter who is dedicated to the immersive nature of details, the release states.
Based on this perspective, Mr. Bost hopes his work is evident as being influenced by the Mesoamerican cultures woven throughout Central Mexico.
While receiving guidance at Instituto Allende in Guanajuato, the Azteca frequency amplified his creative process. As an artist, Mr. Bost says he is committed to working “free-hand,” where the act of sketching is bypassed.
“The purpose of The Gallery at The Madison was to showcase talented artists, like Bryson Bost, in more ways than performing arts to help expand the arts within our community,” said Ari Levin, executive director at The Madison Center for the Arts, in a prepared statement. “We are so excited to present Bost’s Into the Wild and highlight his unique and expressive pieces this fall.”
In addition to his art exhibition, Mr. Bost is teaching a masterclass series to the students at The Madison School District, the release states.
There will be three classes teachers can choose from, which will run from Sept. 2 through Nov. 4. All classes will be available to all teachers and students from each grade and school. There will be a student art show from 5 to 7 p.m. Nov 7, offering students an opportunity to be shown alongside Mr. Bost’s works. The student art show will be open to the public.
The Madison Center for the Arts is at 5601 N. 16th St. in Phoenix.
