Allison Hyde Arts

Great review from the Tacoma News Tribune on my piece at the Tacoma Art Museum’s Biennial!

“The highlight of the Biennial is the jumble of burned furniture in the inner courtyard. An homage to a home destroyed by fire, Allison Hyde’s “Mourning the Ephemeral” combines the surreal (chairs, tables and piano improbably stacked on the stone curves of the “Wave”) with the heartbreakingly real: the dark brown, fire-gutted fragments of someone’s life. It’s a beautiful summing up of what art can do in exactly the right place – in this case, a not-so-traditional museum.” - Rosemary Ponnekanti

I am thrilled with the way the piece looks in the space! I couldn’t be happier with the way it turned out. Pictures to come soon…

Selected for the 9th National Print Competition at the Janet Turner Print Museum at California State University in Chico, CA! I will be creating a large scale print installation piece similar to an earlier installation on the site, titled “Scarlet.” I am really excited about this great opportunity and to be shown with so many talented printmakers. California, here I come! More photos to come!

My recent work, A Faint Echo, has been selected to be in Gallery 110’s juried exhibition. The show will be up from February 2nd-25th with the First Thursday Seattle Art Walk Reception on February 2nd from 6-8 p.m.This will be my first show in Seattle, I am very excited about this opportunity, and invite everyone to come to the opening and enjoy the show!

I am thrilled and honored to announce that my work will be represented in the upcoming Tacoma Art Museum’s 10th Northwest Biennial! Please join me in celebrating at the opening and viewing an exciting show of Northwest art:

January 21–May 20, 2012

Opening Reception: January 21, 2012

Clayton writes “Allison Hyde’s art speaks eloquently of time and place and memory, and sadly of deterioration and destruction over time” and how “the arrangement of prints and objects reminds me of the precision and balance of an Ellsworth Kelly painting.”
