    Canvas: Sundown

    New York-based Andrew Smenos' newest body of work observes obsession, apathy, and conflict via paintings that were executed using "golden hour" light as metaphor for twilight times. "The beginning or the end," as the gallery notes say, "depending on your perspective."

    Laguna Gloria

    This local treasure of a venue, run by those Contemporary Austin folks who also bring us the Jones Center shows Downtown, is all about the outdoors – which is perfect for these trickily navigated times of ours, n'est-ce pas? Recommended: Stop by and breathe in the air, enjoy the lawns and gardens and the many examples of world-class sculpture arrayed across the property, and (as Frankie used to say) r-e-l-a-x.
