A reception will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Thursday, May 15, to celebrate the spring art exhibit, “Revision, Missing, Listen, Light, Fly: Drawings by David Bailin” in Gallery II of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock’s Fine Arts building.

The exhibit continues through May 30 and is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., and Sundays from 2 to 5 p.m.

For more information, call 501.569.3182.

The large-scale narrative works in the series of drawings by Bailin are executed on a heavyweight-prepared paper in charcoal,
 pastel, oil, and even coffee.

In each of the five drawings on display, a male figure is isolated in an office space. The imagery was inspired by the years Bailin supported himself as a part-time, full-charge bookkeeper in New York City.

Bailin is an adjunct professor at UALR. He has a Master of Arts degree from Hunter College in New York City 
and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting from the University of Boulder in Boulder, Colo. He is represented by Koplin Del Rio Gallery in Los Angeles.
