Scott "Toobz" Noel: In It for the Long Run

October 11, 2014 - January 29, 2017 - This exhibition will present an abstracted view of many galloping horses merged into one massive mythical horse charging around the museum’s patio wall and alongside Norfolk Avenue. Referencing the great American western painting tradition, the multi headed horse’s coat and mane will reflect the colors of the exterior architectural surfaces of the museum. Creating with spray paint, Noel will freehand draw In It for the Long Run directly on the surface of the large mural wall. Noel comments that the idea of horses comes from his dreams and he considers the animals “both edgy and playful while also emerging from a personal place.” Spanning a distance of over one hundred and twenty feet and fourteen feet in height, In It for the Long Run is Noel’s largest mural to date.
