Art: Momentum Tulsa

Art waits for no one. If you close your eyes at this year’s showing at Momentum Tulsa: Art Doesn’t Stand Still, you just may miss something incredible. The truth is, you can’t easily predict what will make it into the collection. When the annual exhibit of work by Oklahoma artists ages 30 and under is installed Oct. 8 at Living Arts of Tulsa, audiences will once again line up to view some of the freshest, most provocative works to open a show all year. Momentum Tulsa features painting, photography, sculpture, film, performance and artwork refusing to be pigeonholed by definition. The Oklahoma Visual Arts Coalition chooses the works to be displayed through Oct. 27, but most of the work will not be selected until the few weeks leading up the big event. Oklahoma City gets its own Momentum event in early spring, so this show is special to Tulsa. You might think so, too. www.ovac-ok.org
