The Potentialist Movement Special to Reno Tahoe Tonight
“Amidst the attention given to the sciences as how they can lead to the cure of all diseases and daily problems of mankind, I believe that the biggest breakthrough will be the realization that the arts, which are conventionally considered ‘useless,’ will be recognized as the whole reason why we ever try to live longer or live more prosperously.” 48 Reno Tahoe Tonight

e the Potentialists believe contemporary artists must immerse themselves in all forms of art. Being able to flow freely between music, visual, and performance art is the starting point for modern art. We allow the moment to dictate an art piece, utilizing found or available materials within the workspace. On November 16th from 7 to 11pm at the Generator, located at 1240 Icehouse Avenue, in Sparks, six Potentialists will create works of art combining everything from ballet to sculpture. The works will resemble living paintings or will give the impression of walking through several different worlds. Curated by Potentialist artist Pan Pantoja and featuring Ryan Ostler, Chad Sweet, Aric Shapiro, Eric Brooks, and Matthew Schultz. This event’s purpose is to launch a new art movement and will be an event worth attending.
