This July, I am happy to announce that the Pence will be open for its first reception since February 2020. To celebrate the artists participating in three exhibits opening this month, we will host a public reception at the Pence Gallery from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, July 9.
All are welcome, and we will have awards presented at 7:30 p.m. by our Slice juror, Faith McKinnie. Assistant Director Eileen Hendren will announce the Curator’s Choice award for the “Exhibit It!” show at 8 p.m. that night.
First, a few words about William Wiley
Before we plow into the weekend s (and next week s) great art events, I would like to take a moment to remember first-generation UC Davis art faculty William Wiley. Some of my most fun and interesting days at the UC Davis campus were spent with Wiley. He came back to the university in 2014 to present his iconic Gong sculpture to campus. I wrote about that event here. Today, the San Francisco Chronicle published his obituary, which does a great job telling his life story from his days before UC Davis, at UC Davis, and after UC Davis. He was 83, passing away this week after battling Parkinson s disease. There will be more on Wiley later.
