Independent Journalism in Dallas Needs You
We need to raise $12,500 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
At first, John Hartley’s works in his Scattershot exhibit simply look like paintings of toys. Look closer, though, and you’ll notice the playthings’ chipped paint and missing pieces, evidence of their age. The longer you look, the more nostalgia they evoke, and the more you are reminded of just how much time has passed since your own childhood–especially if you, like myself, spent countless hours mutilating little green Army guys.Scattershot is on display noon to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays or by appointment through January 10 at Mighty Fine Arts, 419 N. Tyler St. Call 214-942-5241 or visit mfagallery.com.
Saturdays, Sundays, 12-5 p.m. Starts: Dec. 19. Continues through Jan. 10, 2009
