Don't Miss" ""The Afterparty""" Reception!

Featuring Artists Deborah Newman And Kat Ryals

 

Opening Artist Reception

Thursday, Oct. 16, from 5 to 7 p.m. 

 

________________________________________________________________________



The After Party

Historic Fifth Street School Mayor’s Gallery

401 S. Fourth St.

 

T"he Afterparty" brings together the work of Deborah Newman and Kat Ryals, two artists whose practices explore the allure, excess and inevitable decay of consumer culture filtered through the distinct lens of Las Vegas. Their work forms a layered dialogue about artifice, aspiration and the fleeting nature of spectacle in a city built on illusion.

 

Ryals’ Showroom Dynasty series features opulent, yet subversive, velvet-printed rugs inspired by casino carpets and European textiles. These installations evoke the extravagance of Las Vegas interior pools, buffets and neon-lit lobbies, while subtly undermining that glamour using salvaged and discarded materials. Her lush surfaces both seduce and critique, exposing the instability of luxury and the constructed nature of wealth.

 

Newman’s oil paintings depict fragments of abandoned signage with a mix of abstraction and nostalgia. Layers of brushwork and unfinished sections evoke a haunting sense of loss, as if the once-vibrant language of neon and advertising is slowly disintegrating. Her compositions invite viewers to confront the erosion of commercial dreams and the impermanence of cultural icons.

 

Together, Ryals’ maximalist, texture-driven installations and Newman’s atmospheric, deconstructed landscapes explore the paradoxes of Las Vegas: opulence and obsolescence, permanence and performance. "The Afterparty" is both a celebration and an elegy, an invitation to consider what remains when the curtain falls, the lights go out, and the fantasy ends.

EXHIBITIONS

*Dave Rowe: "Fields"*

On display through Dec. 18, 2025





Dave Rowe Sculptures in gallery

Las Vegas City Hall | Grand Gallery

495 S. Main St., first floor lobby

Hours: Monday-Thursday, 7 a.m. - 5:30 p.m., closed holidays.

 

Dave Rowe is a sculptor and educator based in Las Vegas whose work explores the layered intersections of landscape, history and the shifting spaces within the American psyche. Deeply influenced by his Midwestern upbringing and extensive travels through the region, Rowe draws on the visual language of abandoned factories, neglected barns and industrial ruins. Using multiple materials, found objects, and an almost obsessive drive to build, Rowe constructs sculptures that examine masculinity, labor and the emotional residue of place. His work often incorporates architectural and landscape-based forms, evoking themes of physical labor and its connection to male identity, while also reflecting on the evolving documentary role of contemporary American landscapes.
