Blue Collar Art Reception at the Lyric in Eastland

Blue Collar is an art exhibition at Lyric Art Center in Eastland County, Texas. Four artists contemplate labor using materials ranging from clay and barbed wire to paint and charcoal.

This is visible in choices of materials and subject matter. Motifs of barbed wire, cowboy hats, work boots, and wind turbines, weave throughout the artworks representing only a part of labor in West Texas. 03/02/2023 12:00 AM
