Unfold the wonders of art and nature this spring and summer as Tulsa Botanic Garden hosts the Oklahoma debut of FLORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN, an exhibition of monumental sculptures by Santa Fe artists Jennifer and Kevin Box. The exhibit opens Sunday, March 2, 2025, when the Garden reopens for the year.

FLORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN showcases 20 installations of museum-quality metal sculptures inspired by origami, the centuries-old Japanese art of folding paper. The larger-than-life sculptures of blooming flowers, birds, grazing deer, galloping ponies, and other flora and fauna themes will be exhibited throughout the five formal gardens at Tulsa Botanic Garden. The Oklahoma debut will also premier three new pieces by Box, including a 17ft. tall kinetic sculpture of colorful butterflies that will “float” above floral displays.

Kevin Box grew up in Bartlesville, OK and graduated from the School of Visual Arts in New York City. His work has received numerous awards and is held in prominent collections worldwide. In 2004, he was the youngest member ever elected to the National Sculptors' Guild.

FLORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN features Box’s own compositions as well as collaborations with his wife, Jennifer, and world-renowned origami artists Te Jui Fu, Beth Johnson, Michael G. LaFosse and Robert J. Lang.

The exhibit includes interpretive information and cast metal examples of origami pieces folded and unfolded. An audio tour is also available for guests to dial into and listen to the artists speak about the work as well as a scavenger hunt sheet.

FLORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN will be at Tulsa Botanic Garden through September 21, 2025. Admission to the Garden will include the exhibit and is free for Garden members. Find hours, admission and more information at tulsabotanic.org or by calling 918-289-0330.

This May, 1515 Lincoln Gallery will present “Stark Art,” a solo exhibition by artist Kevin Stark. The show features five distinct artist personas created by Stark, each producing art in radically different styles and subject matter. Stark immerses himself in these characters, allowing them to shape his creative process, even adopting different costumes for each persona. The exhibition reveals Stark's diverse talents and delves into his ongoing journey of self-discovery and creative curiosity.

In discussing the upcoming exhibition, Stark says, “This show encompasses almost all of my artistic pursuits… and there are many. I’ve created work my entire life, and I have always been interested in learning new techniques and using those skills to create a body of work that spans many styles and mediums. My works have been so varied that my solo shows have sometimes been mistaken for group shows.”

He continues, “I like to keep a sense of humor about what I do. It was this sense of humor that first led me to come up with the idea of different artist personas for the different styles of work I produce. The Pop Art of Red Kittens, the bird paintings by Ivory Keyes, the cartoon-type paintings of Salmon Chevy, the abstract paintings of Jett Black, the mythological pieces from Starkology, and the contemporary portraits I do under my own name are all the product of one person… Kevin Stark. As you move through the exhibit, understand that these artworks, though they may seem to be from five individuals, are in fact all created by one person who creates a lot… and sleeps very little.” Kevin Stark was born and raised in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma. A self-taught artist, he began working at an ad agency at age 15 and was head of the art department by age 18. Simultaneously, he developed an interest in oil painting and the techniques of the old masters, especially portrait artists, and worked to teach himself their methods. Stark later majored in art at the University of Oklahoma, where he expanded his artistic interests and honed his skills in various styles and mediums. Over the years, his expertise led him to a diverse career, including work as a toy designer, comic book artist, billboard artist, muralist, portrait painter, and many other art-related projects for clients worldwide.

After some time away, he eventually returned to his hometown, where he opened his studio and gallery, Stark Art, producing a significant body of work. His interest in performance art also led him to create artist personas that showcase work in different styles. His work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions across the United States, and it is housed in private collections both nationally and internationally. He has been featured in various magazines, newspapers, television programs, and international publications in France, Germany, Australia, and Japan.

The gallery is thrilled to present “Stark Art!” This dynamic show promises to inspire and captivate, inviting guests to discover a wide range of artworks on view in our main exhibition space. The exhibition opens with a free public reception on Thursday, May 1, 2025, from 6–8 pm, and will remain on view until Saturday, June 7, 2025. In addition, join us for two special artist talks with Kevin Stark. The first, on Saturday, May 3, from 1–2 pm, will feature Stark as himself, offering a personal look into his artistic process. The second, on Saturday, May 31, from 1–2 pm, will showcase Stark’s persona, Red Kittens, in a performative discussion. Both talks are free to attend, but seating is limited, and RSVPs are encouraged. To reserve your spot, please email info@1515lg.com or call 405.503.1063.

Also, don’t miss Kevin Stark and his band, Squeaky Burger, as they take the stage forour monthly 1515 Live Music event. Squeaky Burger, formed in 1997, creates improvised soundtrack music for imaginary films inspired by Mexican cinema. The band has released several albums and continues to perform live. Join us on Friday, May 30, from 6–8 pm for a free, exciting performance. 1515 Live Music takes place on the last Friday of every month and features a diverse lineup of local musicians. Don’t miss this special evening of music, art, and wine!
