Anyone who hooks up with the RiENNIAL studio tour today (and even some art collectors who don’t) will not want to miss today’s Lauri Lynnxe Murphy Studio Sale, the last of two closeout bonanza open houses hosted by the departing Denver artist, who’s on her way to grad school in Ohio this fall. Featured is two decades’ worth of work Murphy can’t afford to store while she sublets her studio.
“It’s all gotta go,” Murphy says definitively. But it’s also like having one last show: “It’s like a mini-retrospective in my studio. There’s twenty years of work here, but it’s mostly from the last ten: my grid series, biomorphic paintings, newer sculptures. There’s something for everybody: drawings and prints and even unfinished parts of things.” Not to mention that most of the work is going at deeply discounted prices, and Murphy is willing to bargain on the rest.
Visit Murphy’s studio, 2900 Marion Street, Unit 2, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; admission is free. Go to www.lynnxe.com.
