Longtime friends Marlin Rotach and Don Weller are thrilled

annual Art of the West Reception that takes place during the
week of Western Folklife Center’s National Cowboy Poetry
Gathering. Mr. Rotach and Mr. Weller will be with us on the
evening of the reception to talk about their work and to mingle
with friends while we enjoy libations at the historic Halleck Bar,
nibble hors d’oeuvres, and peruse the exhibits. They will be with
us February 1st to autograph their book, The River Flows:
Watercolors of the American West. The book focuses on the 1820s

LARRY HYSLOP
Carrying Water Across Arid Land
On view in Barrick Gallery until April 6, 2023
Larry Hyslop is a long-time resident of Elko, where he retired
from Great Basin College. He and his wife, Cindy, travel the
West in their RV, and Larry gains inspiration from Western
landscapes on their adventures. During the 1990s, Larry learned
pottery from the Tuscarora Pottery School and the Parks family
but soon got hooked on the distinctive black, white, and redware
pottery, which is bare, polished clay with no glaze. His technique
is centuries old, practiced by ancient Anasazi potters, modern
Southwest Pueblo potters and residents of Casea Grande,
Mexico. He has modernized the technique with his own unique
forms and decorations that reflect his view of the natural world.
