River City features works of Todd Stokes during May

TERRE HAUTE — Todd Stokes artwork has a tendency to fall into two separate bodies of work one that represents that simple break where we stop to notice, to realize what we are given, the natural world that we so often take for granted, and a second that celebrates the creative energy that brought it all together.

Trees have become a major part of Stokes subject matter. The artist believes that they are extremely important to our daily lives. It seems they protect and nurture our existence.

I’ll tell you what this is, it’s two gallons of shit in a one-gallon bucket.

The hardscrabble desert land of New Mexico is the perfect setting for Percival Everett’s new novel, Assumption, mainly because it mirrors the protagonist’s character incredibly well. Ogden Walker is a deputy in the sheriff’s office in the small town of Plata, where he serves after a brief stint in the army. Plata might be where mom Eva Walker lives but Ogden finds her presence not enough of a comfort to overcome his unease with his mixed African American heritage (he is biracial) or his general malaise with what seems to be a dead-end career.
