Showcasing a broad array of his work--which has been shown in more than one hundred solo exhibitions in thirteen countries--\u003ci\u003eKeith Carter: Fifty Years\u003c\/i\u003e spans delicate, century-old processes as well as digital-age techniques to yield an enduring vision of the world around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe interlaced images in \u003ci\u003eKeith Carter: Fifty Years\u003c\/i\u003e feature contrasts of natural light and darkness as we explore the mythos of time and terrain, the familiar and the magical, and the varied creatures that inhabit our earth. The human form--depleted or energized, solitary or with a beloved partner--becomes a meditation on aging and loss, which have affected Carter profoundly in recent years. Yet these losses have spurred in him a sense of discovery, not despair. Rather than arranging the works chronologically, Carter chose to group them into correlations, echoing the kaleidoscopic effect of memory. The result is mesmerizing; each artifact draws us into an experience of intensity and wonder, enduring long after the page is turned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeith Carter holds the Endowed Walles Chair in Fine Arts at Lamar University and is the recipient of a 2009 Texas Medal of Arts Award.
