Renovated Reputations: Recent Work by Kenney Mencher

Description

The Art Museum of Los Gatos presents Renovated Reputations, an immersive exhibition experience featuring works conceived as a collaboration in painting, creative fiction, and design. At once noir, bohemian and pulp in style, the works invite the viewer to step inside and sit awhile, discover their stories and spark engagement.

Kenney Mencher is a painter and a professor of Art History and Studio Art at Ohlone College in Fremont, CA. He is also the Gallery Director and Curator at the Louis –Meager Art Gallery.

Art! Dancing! Gaiety! Wit! Satire!
Join us after dark in a cozy 1930s speakeasy setting to kick off Renovated Reputations. This multifaceted presentation of recent paintings by Kenney Mencher incorporates readings of collaborative fiction inspired by the artwork, jazz performance, and dancing. Come get your fishtail-gitchy-black bottom-scrunch on at the Los Gatos Art Museum.

Commission one of your own to make a truly unique holiday gift. Dress in period style is encouraged though we’ll have a few props available.
