The Contemporary Forum Artist Grant Winners Exhibition at The Phoenix Art Museum:
Last April, I was awarded a Contemporary Forum of The Phoenix Art Museum “Emerging Artist” Grant and have since been planning on exhibiting a piece in The Janis and Dennis Lyon Gallery at The Phoenix Art Museum. But now I’m happy to say, that I’ll actually be exhibiting two pieces as part of a group exhibition of last years award winners. It’s a great honor to know that I’ll be able to grace the walls of a museum I’ve grown up with and admired my whole life. Even if it is one of the smallest “hallway” galleries, I’m more than stoked! The show will hang from April 28th through May 20th 2012 and will include artists, Melissa Martinez, Peter Bugg, John Tuomisto-Bell, William LeGoullon, Lisa Corine von Koch, Aaron Rothman, Cy Edgar Keener, and Jay Atherton. There will be an public opening reception as well as the announcement of the 2012 Grant Winners on May 9th at 7PM. I look forward to continuing my new projects with support from The Contemporary Forum as well as The Phoenix Art Museum. Now, just gotta make sure my pieces look as best as they can!

"Dry Heat" is the blog of Arizona based artist: William LeGoullon.

WilliamLeGoullon.com

William LeGoullon often credits his devotion to and engagement with the Phoenix arts community as one of his driving inspirations and has actively supported his local interest for over 10 years. Since receiving his BFA from the Herberger Institute of Design and the Arts at Arizona State University in 2009, he has exhibited extensively throughout the state of Arizona as well as nationally including juried exhibitions at such venues as The Center For Fine Art Photography in Fort Collins, Colorado and The Midwest Center for Photography in Wichita, Kansas. In 2011 LeGoullon was awarded The Contemporary Forum of The Phoenix Art Museum's "Emerging Artist Grant" and exhibited in The Arizona Biennial at the Tucson Museum of Art. The following year he was awarded a Public Art Commission by The City of Phoenix - Office of Arts and Culture as part of the Seventh Ave. Streetscape Project.

Having solo exhibitions, at such places as Modified Arts Contemporary Gallery, The Icehouse, Eye Lounge Contemporary Art Gallery, and Bokeh Gallery at Monorchid, LeGoullon has also begun exploring the act of curation while continuing to take part in artist lectures and educational engagement presentations throughout the city. In early 2012, he curated “The Forty Eighth: Contemporary Photography at Arizona’s Centennial” which displayed at MonOrhid Gallery in downtown Phoenix. He has served as a member of The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art’s Artist Advisory Council and is an Eye Lounge Artist Collective and Contemporary Art Gallery Alumni. In addition to creating art, William also works as a freelance commercial photographer and teaches at Phoenix College. He plans to continue living and working in the Phoenix area.
