The Silos at Sawyer Yards in Houston is a bastille like space located just Northwest of downtown Houston. The 30 circular rooms constructed of concrete are raw, dark, and cold. The space is a reminder of the tragedy that befell Texas last February after a deep freeze disabled our ill designed power grid that resulted in many fatalities and billions in property damage.
The opportunity to present art installations in the Silos enabled us to sponsor and organize the exhibition “Blue Norther”. It is an invitational multimedia show, consisting of living artists from Texas and Louisiana. The jurors are Texas born, New York painter John Alexander and Mississippi born Bradley Sumrall, Collection Curator of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans. The jurors have chosen the artists based on reputation and known talent in lieu of the actual work. There has been no public funding for this project.
