ARTSHOUND Sniffing out what you shouldn’t miss in the arts this week L ANDSCAPE BY L ARRY HURST If you haven’t seen the work of self-taught local artist Larry Hurst, get thee to Corvallis for an opening reception of his solo exhibit, What He Sees, 4 to 8 pm Thursday, July 21, at the ArtWorks Gallery, 408 S.W. Monroe Street; FREE. His swirling landscapes and remarkable use of color could have been born out of the wild expressionism of the early-20th-century Fauves, while a fellow EW writer told me his paintings looked Van Gogh-y. Either way, his work is a breath of fresh air over the mountains. Hurst often shows at the Eugene OSLP Lincoln Gallery, and he also specializes in scale architecture models. While up north, join in the Corvallis Arts Walk 4 to 8 pm the same night; for more info visit corvallisartswalk.com.
