Richard Curtin’s painting started out as commentary on the Trump administration’s lies about COVID-19; Jan. 6 gave it new meaning

Early last summer, when COVID-19 was still a “new” thing, artist Richard D. Curtin, formerly of Dallas, was invited by ChunkArtsStudio & Gallery host and founder Lori Griffin to participate in “a unique exhibition/installation” to be featured in the Fort Stockton gallery. It was to be a 3D installation called Covid-19 2020.
Starting Aug. 18, the public was able to see the 3D installation at any time by going to the venue, at 107 W. 1st St. in Fort Stockton and viewing pieces through the windows at any time. Also starting on Aug. 18, pieces were added weekly until the one-time walk-through opening on Sept. 4.
