Closing Party for Valerie Sullivan Fuchs at Gallery NuLu

On Friday evening March 28, 2008 from 5-8PM there will be a closing show at Gallery NuLu for Valerie Sullican Fuchs solo show "Boys Don't Cry." I don't know much about the show so here is some info from the press release:

Described as a "prominent video artist" by Julien Robson, The Speed Museum's Curator of Contemporary Art , Fuchs offers her first solo exhibition in five years.

Fuchs has exhibited her work throughout the US, including Louisville's 21C and Speed Museums, twice at the Santa Barbara Center for Contemporary Art, and several galleries in Chicago. Fuchs has also shown her work abroad, most recently in Estonia at the Parnu Film and Video Festival, as well as in Austria and Serbia.

Fuchs is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Al Smith Fellowship from the Kentucky Arts Council, multiple Artist Enrichment Grants from the Kentucky Foundation for Women, and a grant from the Sony Corporation. In 2003, she won a Prague Quadrennial Award for Video Design. In 2005, the Louisville International Airport commissioned the creation of her 'Zero to Sixty' project, on permanent display in the terminal.

She received a Bachelors in Architecture from the University of Kentucky, and her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her latest collection offers several new video pieces, as well as other works.
