Dave Webb: the grateful chair
October 1 – November 1, 2024
Reception: October 11, 6 – 9 PM
Dave Webb’s response to his wife’s cancer produced the grateful chair. Considering her path from terminal diagnosis to remission, the grateful chair is part love note, part meditation on mortality, and part unsolicited advice. With a video installation, dozens of still iPhone images printed on metal and the chair itself, the exhibit invites us to consider our own connections to love and loss.
Artist Talk: Sunday, October 27, 2 – 3:30 PM
(FREE, $10 donation suggested)

Dave Webb discusses the merging of writing, music, and photography in the grateful chair, expanding upon how art functioned both as a form of reflection and self-expression during his wife’s treatment for cancer.
Sponsored by Kim Ohlson & Allen Barnes, and Pat & Hoy Carman.
The Pence Gallery is open 11:30 AM – 5 PM, Tuesday – Sunday (closed Monday).
