RUSSELL — The exhibition “Finding Balance” will at the Deines Cultural Center, 820 N. Main, Russell, from May 23 through July 10.

The exhibition was curated by Joel T. Dugan, Fort Hays State University professor of painting. Dugan has selected works from 15 renowned artists from across the country to participate in the exhibit.

An opening reception will be from 5 to 8 p.m. May 23.

“The artwork created by the artists of the Midwest has historically focused on themes of the land and mans reliance upon it. Many artists explore the landscape of the region as it pertains to our physical survival, domestic livelihood and spirituality,” Dugan said. “In choosing the works for this exhibition, I selected artists that explore the presence of mans footprint on the environment and the impact our surrounding have on us. These works explore the spaces we inhabit, places we visit and memories. As we look forward and consider what the future holds, the landscape reminds us of the changes we have lived through.”
