Dear Art Department Community, We are happy to ann Dear Art Department Community,
We are happy to announced that this week’s talk in our Spring 2026 Arts colloquium will be given by artists Jefferey Vallance @jeffreyvallancestudios and Victoria Reynolds @victoria_reynoldsss .

Jeffrey Vallance was born in 1955 in Redondo Beach, CA. He lives and works in Los Angeles. His work blurs the lines between object making, installation, performance, curating and writing. Often hisprojects are site-specific such as burying a frozen chickenat a pet cemetery; having audiences with the king of Tonga, the queen of Palau and the presidents of Iceland; creating a Richard Nixon Museum; installing an exhibit aboard a tugboat in Sweden; curating shows in Las Vegas, such as the Liberace and Clown Museum. In Lapland, Vallance constructed a shamanic “magic drum.” 

Victoria Reynolds’s meat paintings explore vagaries of representing and rendering flesh in paint. They explore our ideas of mortality, desire, and beauty. They are inspired by ourreasonable suspicion of beautiful, seductive, illusory images. Thefleshly paintings of fascia, muscle, and viscera often reach outside their ornate bounds into their painted frames. Her recent carved work blend historical genres, game presentation and still lifes, heraldic hunting plaques, and the Venetian art of painting flesh. She has ruminated over the marbled walls of royal palaces, the Vatican, and the U.S. Senate Chamber.
