Class 1: Painting/Mixed Media BIOGRAPHY

(b. 1978 Springfield, MA) is a collage artist based in St. Paul, Minnesota. For 20 years he has exhibited his work locally, nationally and internationally through many solo and group exhibitions, most recently at the Hopkins Center for the Arts in Hopkins, Minnesota. His work tends to reflect on iconic and nostalgic American subjects. Made from found newspaper and vintage color magazine and book fragments, his collages appear at first to be realistic photographs but on closer inspection contain loads of detail and historical references through image and type, exploring memory and commenting on the connections we make with designed objects.

In 2017 he was commissioned by the Green Bay Packers to create nine original pieces for permanent art collection at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. In 2024 he was tasked with creating a large collage of R2D2 and C3P0 for the corporate offices of Lucasfilm and Industrial Light and Magic in San Francisco, California. His work can be found across the country in corporate settings and many private collections.

CRITERIA STATEMENT

It was both a great honor and a difficult task to narrow down the selections in painting and mixed media this year. There is such a broad range of what constitutes and qualifies as work in this category, with many different new and established techniques and artistic approaches that often cannot be compared to each other. With that in mind, I did my best to select a variety of unique and visually engaging pieces, focusing on works that demonstrate both a high degree of conceptual thought in the approach to subject and/or material and execution of the artistic process.

DENNIS KALOW

FRED DINGLER

Class 2: Sculpture

Class 3: Watercolor/Gouache/Casein/Tempera

BIOGRAPHY

BIOGRAPHY

Since graduating from Mankato State University and the University of Minnesota, Dennis has spent a large portion of his career as a teacher and ceramicist. As an educator he worked in Minnesota, Japan and Venezuela before retiring in 2001. Since then, architecture and more recently sculpture has occupied most of his time. His current studio is located in NE Minneapolis.

For me, being an artist is not merely a chosen profession. It is a way of capturing and transcribing what I see in life so that others may enjoy it as well.

“My sculpture is simply a response to the world I experience every day. Seldom literal, I’m more interested in combining shapes, colors, and textures into objects that I find interesting, that fascinate me, and say what I want to say. I love the variety of materials and the design challenges that are unique to working in three dimensions.”

Dennis’ work has been shown at dozens of local and Midwest art galleries, art centers and events. It is part of many private collections and can be seen locally at the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown Minneapolis and the new Delta Sky Lounge, MSP Airport.

CRITERIA STATEMENT

Does a sculpture require our attention and have more to offer as we look closer? As with most art, originality, design, skillfully used materials, color and texture choices are important things. But sculpture is usually seen from many directions which complicates composition. It may or may not have a base which impacts the final product. Size considerations may or may not be appropriate to the design and a chosen media may or may not be the best fit.

A sculptor has many important decisions to make which are simultaneously complex, challenging and wonderful.

After graduating from The American Academy of Art in Chicago, I began my 40-year career as an advertising illustrator. In 2000, I started my fine art career to paint things that I found interesting with meaning and beauty. During my time as an illustrator, I had to paint all kinds of subjects. I feel all the different art techniques, mediums, and subject matters I was required to use enhanced my personal fine art style and prepared me to be a teacher of art as well.

I am a full-time painter of over 65 years and I continue to enjoy the challenges of creating art in watercolor, oil, acrylic, pencil, and pen and ink. I teach every Wednesday in my home studio in Burnsville, Minn.

Teaching.....Beginners though advanced welcome. Each student will be working on their own project in the medium of their choice. Work on a new project or one already in progress. I will help you develop your own style to become more confident in the medium of your choice. Bring your photographic references such as landscape, urban, or favorite photos from your travels. I also teach portrait paintings from photos. Minnesota River School, Bloomington Art Center, Savage Art Studios. I have given demos and workshops in Minnesota and Florida.

JO ANN HENDRICKS

INGRID RESTEMAYER

Class 4: Drawings/Pastel

Class 5: Printmaking

BIOGRAPHY

BIOGRAPHY

I am a native of Iowa. My art career began in earnest at the University of Iowa. Here I found doors to the universe of perception and creative possibility creaking and even sometimes crashing open. With fits and starts and varying degrees of intensity since that four-year brief launching, I have been on a sine wave of an artist’s life. In my senior year of college, I stepped into the commitment of marriage and after four years added child-raising to my daily routine. I was surrounded in my home state of lush black fertile earth, long highways, and small towns. The row upon row of July corn silk tassels only served to draw my eye to the horizon line where the vastness of the evening ebony offered visual and emotional connection. The crazy university art thinkers had dissipated into a fade but the lessons learned were continued by individuals and small groups of art school expatriates, area artists, visiting lecturers, and a variety of art enthusiasts. Together we created a base of operation and enactment: organizing drawing groups, visiting and exhibiting in galleries, taking and instructing classes, creating projects, attending conferences, and leading art organizations. The creative pursuit is continuous.

Ingrid Restemayer is a printmaker and mixed-media artist based in Northeast Minneapolis. She studied at Whitecliffe College of Art and Design in New Zealand and received her BFA from the University of North Dakota with concentrations in printmaking and fiber arts.

Restemayer has studied under internationally known printmakers, growing and evolving her own studio practices through more than 35 years of art-making. Her body of work includes elegant drypoint etchings, which are intimate studies of animals and nature. She explores not only the textbook form of a species, but also the expressions conveyed by their organic movements.

CRITERIA STATEMENT

CRITERIA STATEMENT

You are viewing wonderful drawings and pastels at the Minnesota State Fair that make a connection to our state, or from life at any latitude.

I was impressed with the quality of print work that was submitted for entry to this year’s State Fair art show. I truly wish I could have allowed many more works in the collection.

As your juror, I looked for subject matter specific to our geographic characteristics, social-concerns, occupational interests, culture occurrences, ethnic identities, in short, anything to do with firsthand Minnesotan experiences. As an art professional, I look for the level of creativity, the ability to organize art components on a surface, and for the level of skill and presentation.

Please acknowledge the artists who with courage share their skills and ideas. Viewer, enjoy and be impressed.

Restemayer’s etchings and mixed-media works have exhibited locally, nationally and internationally. Her work has been acquired by collectors, corporations, and art institutions and is in the permanent collections of the North Dakota Museum of Art, Marshall Field and Co., Inc. and Boston Scientific, to name a few. Restemayer’s many volunteer endeavors include time on the board of the Northeast Minneapolis Arts Association (NEMAA) and service on the committees that developed the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District.

When jurying printmaking I look for a balance of formalistic, pragmatic and expressionistic qualities. In printmaking, however, technical mastery is often the tipping point for me. The works that are included here meet that criteria. They also represent either something nostalgic, a creative curiosity, or a unique vision that had me going back to the same pieces time and again.

LEE PERSELL

MARY HARK

Class 6: Ceramics/Glass

Class 7: Textiles/Fiber

BIOGRAPHY

BIOGRAPHY

Lee Persell is a ceramic artist and educator in the Twin Cities area. She exhibits in local and regional shows and galleries. She attended the University of Minnesota and has taught and managed the ceramics department at the Minnetonka Center for the Arts. Her work for the last 10 years has increasingly been more about expanding her own horizons through the process of wood firing pushing that experience through the marriage of form and surface with the movement through flame and ash.

Mary Hark is a Professor in Design Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she teaches papermaking and textile design. She is the proprietor of HARK! Handmade Paper producing limited editions of handmade papers in collaboration with book designers and artists, as well as unique paper artworks that have been exhibited internationally. Her work can be found in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, the Smithsonian Museum of African Art, the Ginsberg Book Arts Collection in Johannesburg, South Africa, and in many university special collections in the United States. Hark is the recipient of a 2021-22 McKnight Fellowship in Book Arts for her work as a hand papermaker. In 2006, Hark received a Senior Fulbright Research Grant to Sub Saharan Africa, and continues to lead an initiative in Kumasi, Ghana, building the first hand papermill in West Africa capable of producing high-quality papers entirely from local botanicals. Hark received an M.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an M.A. from the University of Iowa in Iowa City.

CRITERIA STATEMENT

The Minnesota State Fair is a collection and showcasing what is being expressed and experienced now. Through the eyes and hands of its residence through the media of clay and glass. I’m looking to see and feel the artists’ intent, but more than intent the execution of their ideas through their chosen media. This goes beyond technical ability the ability, to communicate with others through visual expression. I am looking to get to know the artist and what was important to them.

STEPHANIE LYNN ROGERS Class 8: Photography BIOGRAPHY

Stephanie Lynn Rogers was born in Rochester, Minnesota, and grew up in Chillicothe, Missouri. She earned a BA in Studio Art from St. Olaf College and an MFA in Photography from Tyler School of Art and Architecture at Temple University in Philadelphia. Stephanie’s own visual art work includes photography, textile works, and multimedia installations.

She has exhibited at Rochester Art Center, Northfield Arts Guild, Intermedia Arts, Silverwood Park Gallery, and Flaten Art Gallery, all in Minnesota; Parsons The New School for Design in New York City; the Hold Art Space in Brisbane, Australia; and Icebox Gallery and Temple Contemporary, both in Philadelphia.

Rogers has been the rxecutive and artistic director of the Anderson Center at Tower View in Red Wing since 2018. She formerly served as the gallery director of The Third Place Gallery and assistant director of Thomas Barry Fine Arts, both in Minneapolis.

CRITERIA STATEMENT

When most people constantly have a camera and many people take photos daily, everyone is a photographer. Our culture is awash with more images than ever before, including those generated by AI. What stood out was images that evoked emotion.

These selected works moved me in some way, making me feel surprised, intrigued, serene, challenged, solitary, or connected.

Some are humorous, others are full of pathos. For me, each shared a perspective that felt like the photographer’s own unique point of view.

Rowan Pope & Bly Pope Merry Reimler

LYNN TANAKA I find strong personal connections to the idea of collecting. Objects that – by physical identity, texture, pattern or color – represent my theories and observations about life concepts.

The foundation of my work revolves around collecting appreciation and motivation from my observation of nature. I see nature as the ultimate artist. From its forms and color palettes to its functions; everything that nature produces is used as a motivational tool to create and expand on my artistic output.

Drawing is the tool that I utilize to express my inspiration and connection to nature by translating my observations of nature in pattern and form. Whether it is the pattern of bark found in the Sequoia National Park, the camouflaged skin sighted on the Napoleon eel found on the coral reefs, or the graphic patterns spotted on black-eyed peas, all is first observed, then the drawing begins. Sometimes the natural is seen through the filter of my drawing, other times we are left with the un-translated objects themselves.

My Japanese heritage greatly influences my work and establishes an additional layer to my artwork. The essence of Japanese design involves a marriage of functionality and beauty through form, symmetry and craft with impeccable workmanship. The Japanese have many traditions that involve the collecting and ordering of nature, all of which inform my decision-making process.

The collection of layers, drawing, objects and heritage are then presented in a shadow box. This helps create a whole out of the related collections, and also references my assembling of collections. In the end the artwork becomes a physical, mental and philosophical documentary of my observations.

JON KAMRATH

ERNEST MILLER

After loving teaching art for a decade, I tested my original dream of being a public sculptor with a four-story-tall piece in Rochester, Minn. Walking around the colossal finished work confirmed my dream had come true, and since then I have been a full-time public sculptor for 12 years now. In addition to permanent pieces, I usually install around 10-15 temporary sculptures annually in rotating public sculpture walks throughout the upper Midwest, as well as many smaller pieces for galleries, homes and private collections.

My work is a partnership between achieving utilitarian ideals and aesthetic intentions. Concepts for my work are translations of visual elements from personal interests. I’m drawn to the interaction of the built environment, subdued by the natural world, for example, weathered paint, an aging barn, or a well-used farm implement. Using slips and glazes, I build depth, highlight edges, and create patterns, allowing for perceptions of depth, foreground, and background.

My studio is at my home in Mahtomedi, where I get infinite inspiration from my three creative kids and their amazing mother.

I especially enjoy making sculptures that encourage the viewer to move all around the piece, rewarding them with unique views from each perspective. And my teaching experience has come full circle as I now put the many lessons I learned from my students into action in the studio.

To see more of my creative process, you can watch my TEDx talk Imagination is a Muscle or check out some in-progress works on my social media pages @kamrathsculpture or webpage www.kamrathsculpture.com

SANJUKTA MITRA Sanjukta Mitra is a visual artist, storyteller, and seeker whose creative journey is rooted in the rich traditions of Kathak dance and Hindustani classical music. Born in India and immersed in the arts from the age of two, she brings a unique fusion of realism, expressionism, and spiritual metaphor to her work.

After leaving a corporate career in 2021, Sanjukta embraced her calling full time, building a thriving studio and teaching nearly 100 students aged 5 to 80. Her evocative paintings have been showcased in solo and duo exhibitions such as Spiritus at Rumriver Art Center and The Spirit of Myth at the Hopkins Center for the Arts. Her Spiritus series was also selected for display at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport.

From international exhibits with ArtsToHearts Project to being named among the Top 100 Emerging Artists of 2023, Sanjukta’s work is a tribute to healing, humanity, and the inner journey.

Through color, form, and story, Sanjukta Mitra invites us into a world of connection, purpose, and transformation.

KARLA RYDRYCH I create assemblages and sculptures from discarded domestic objects that have been used and animated by previous owners. I transform these objects, adding weight and strength by layering thread, embroidering text and staining the fabric. This is my version of storytelling – an outward expression of an interior dialogue.

The work becomes an exploration not only of that interior dialogue, but also of the intimacy of handiwork. I spend hours bent over a piece. As I stitch, I am literally integrated into the work – sweat from my hands, a spot of blood from a pricked finger, a stray hair – all become part of the art.

Each tangled piece of thread is an element in a memento mori, celebrating the complexity, messiness and ultimate decay of human life. I fill the canvas of the object with layers of text, but the words and context are largely obliterated. A partial sentence or word may stand out, but for the most part, it is a secret code, honoring un-storied lives that may otherwise have been lost. I explore the space between our individual and collective memory. I’m creating repositories for our joys and sorrows; sculptures which summon ghosts and keep our stories alive.

JEFF GAUSS

DAN TRAN

Jeffery Gauss, also known as “The MagnetDude,” is a magnetic art creator and MicroDoodle artist, creating unique, collectible pieces since 1996. With over 64,000 signed and numbered works, most of his art is small, affordable, and one-of-a-kind, designed to make collecting accessible to all.

Tran engages the viewers in reflecting on the human condition through the intersection of aesthetic, philosophy and social activism in both figurative and abstract style.

Using thick magnetic vinyl, he blends ephemera, photos, embroidery, drawings, found objects, semi-precious stones, foil, and acrylic mediums to create his vibrant, tactile magnetic art. His MicroDoodles are intricate, tiny drawings made with Rapidograph technical pens (some now obsolete). Gauss, known as “The Dudeler” as well, has something called "high myopia" and can see things inches away without the need for magnification. With his extremely steady hand and his meditative process, he enters a rhythmic flow, allowing each delicate line to emerge naturally.

These geometric works, which he has created since he was young, align with the style known as "Gaussian Art” – a nod to a distant cousin, mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss. Fittingly, his last name, Gauss, defines a unit of magnetic flux density, echoing the magnetic pull of his creations. His art has found collectors worldwide, with each piece a unique spark of creativity.

PAM LUER Pam Luer’s Nature Sketchbook Series was inspired by her own personal desire to spend more time outdoors.

I am interested in connecting to nature through my art. Like many of us, I grew up in the time of unstructured outdoor wanderings, artful daydreaming. I look for opportunities to recreate a feeling of freedom and close observation through my sketchbook work.

Whether it’s on the road or ensconced on my own front porch, I find working in a sketchbook connects me more closely to my interests and the wild world. Working this way also keeps my tools at hand and my chops sharp. I think it’s very important to work directly from life. The practice is more appealing to me than a polished work of art, seeing the “artist’s hand” versus a finished painting has always been more intriguing.

Pam teaches Nature Sketchbook workshops at arboretums, botanical gardens and nature centers. Check out my website to learn more. pamluer.com Instagram @pamluer

Tran was born in Vietnam, and now lives in the United States. He worked as a bioengineer for many years. Upon leaving the tech world, he returned to his first love, art, and is basically self-taught. Depending on the subject, his practice used the abstract and figurative style to explore our human condition.

In 2020, he responded to covid and extreme political turmoil with the series Lost & Found in the Time of INfection, examining through the eyes of extraterrestrial visitors burning issues of our time (climate change, criminal justice, threats to democracy, cult of violence) as well as hopeful manifestations of humanity (friendship, love, healing). Most recently he is working on a project titled "The Children of the Emperor," investigating the many faces of power, through the more complex medium of multimedia installations (sculpture, video, music).

JASPER DUBERRY Jasper Duberry explores the complexities of the black experience in America through the dynamic art of woodcut relief printing. Duberry’s work captures themes of pain, joy, excellence, healing, and resistance, shedding light on pivotal moments and figures in history.

Exploring these themes has also provided an avenue for Duberry to reflect and express personal emotions, thoughts and feelings of being a black male in America himself.

As Michelle Alexander, author of the The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness, writes, “Slavery defined what it meant to be black (a slave), and Jim Crow defined what it meant to be black (a secondclass citizen). Today mass incarceration defines the meaning of blackness in America: Black people, especially black men, are criminals. That is what it means to be black.”

Duberry received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from Viterbo University in La Crosse, Wisc., and currently resides in St. Michael, Minn.

KEN HERREN

BLY POPE

Inspired by a vivid childhood experience, Ken Herren’s collection of colorful abstractions employs an intentionally playful process, using bold color and course texture to elicit a visceral experience. But it is the delicately balanced tension between what is seen and what is “masked” that invites the viewer into an exploration of the complexity of self-identity and human relations; where outer veneers both reveal and conceal the true souls and “messy beauty” within us all.

Bly Pope is a professional studio artist with a continuing interest in hyperrealism and traditional fine arts. He graduated from Stanford University and received his Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Minnesota, where he has been an Adjunct Professor for over 15 years, teaching classes in Drawing, Graphic Novel Illustration, and Artistic Interpretation from Vintage Cinema. He has also taught at The Minneapolis College of Art and Design for 10 years, in Foundation: 2D, and The Interactive Visual Novel. His work has been shown and awarded in numerous exhibitions, and has been purchased by The Cafesjian Museum of Fine Art in Armenia and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. His drawing “Maryanna” was selected to be a part of the National Portrait Competition Exhibition at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery throughout 2013-2014 and was purchased by the Minneapolis Institute of Art for their permanent collection in 2017. His drawing of the Minnesota poet Robert Bly was acquired by the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery in 2025. His work has been collected by many private collectors, including: David Lévy & Associates (Brussels), James Faber (London), Elena Sparling, Rachel McGarry, Jennifer Phelps, Zeno Wicks, Teo Nguyen, Robert and Ruth Bly, Meg and Wayne Gisslen, Jaime and Kyle Gearhart, Nancy and Jim Fawcett, and others.

ROWAN POPE Rowan Pope is a professional studio artist whose work explores the human condition by telling visual narratives. Many of his drawings and paintings are inspired by the dark and brilliant work of author Franz Kafka. Rowan also draws and paints landscapes and botanicals, which are meant to celebrate the vast beauty and quiet peace of nature, and humanity’s humble place within it. Rowan has worked extensively with genocide and Holocaust survivors, and some of his art derives from the devastating real-life stories told by those survivors. He works in an imaginative style of hyperrealism in which he integrates photographs into digital collages and transforms those collages into meticulous drawings. Rowan graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Stanford University and received his Master of Fine Arts degree at the University of Minnesota. In 2013, he created an illustrated book based on the stories of Holocaust survivor Joe Grosnacht, for which he received a Major Arts Grant from Rimon: The Minnesota Jewish Council. His artwork has been shown in many national and international exhibitions and has won numerous awards. Many private collectors have acquired his work, and his public collections include The Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Walker Art Center.

Bly Pope's hyperrealistic pencil drawings and oil paintings of landscapes, faces, flowers, and natural phenomena are meant to facilitate the viewer’s close inspection through their abundance of discrete fragments of information and their insistence that even the ordinary is worthy of extreme scrutiny. These works embody his belief that the mundane is miraculous, the commonplace is extraordinary, and that every diminutive, “missable” object is alive, singular, and “holy,” and that everyday occurrences must be appreciated with care, reverence, and gratitude.

MERRY REIMLER Merry Reimler is an artist based in Minneapolis. She studied at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, and earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Minnesota. Her work has been exhibited in numerous group shows both locally and nationally. She is an active member of the Homewood Photo Collective in North Minneapolis.

Using digital photography, collage, fabric, encaustic, and other materials to create layered, dynamic compositions, Merry often explores themes of home, family, memory, and time. She allows her process to unfold organically in the studio, working intuitively and focuses on embracing the unexpected – rather than rushing toward a polished end result before the work is ready.

"Loose play in the studio engages my mind deeply and helps me develop concepts and projects. Especially inspired and challenged by collage, I’m drawn to explore how different themes, images and materials might begin to be combined – how they dance and sing together, or whether they spark a deeper visual curiosity. Can merging these materials deepen the ideas I’m working through in a given piece?”
