Nuwu Art invites the community to attend and view High Roller Blooms – a Lolita Develay solo art exhibition and opening reception at the Nuwu Art Gallery + Community Center, located at 1331 S. Maryland Pkwy, Las Vegas, NV 89104. Develay explores the intersection of luxury and nature through immersive large scale watercolor paintings. Many pieces depict the delicate impermanence of flowers juxtaposed with the enduring allure of wealth.
Please Note: This show contains nudity, which some parents may not find suitable for minors.
High Roller Blooms will run from January 31 through April 25, 2025.
The Nuwu Art Gallery + Community Center (NAGCC) is a POC-owned art and activism space located at 1331 S. Maryland Pkwy, Las Vegas, NV 89104 (Purple building). Over the past 5 years, we've worked hard to bring the NAGCC to the Las Vegas public for all to enjoy. Before the gallery officially opened, artist Fawn Douglas displayed her MFA thesis show SOOV in early 2022. Juan Cuevas and Xochil Xitlalli followed with a pre-opening exhibit Malinalli that Summer. Nuwu Art's softly-opened with the Beginnings exhibition in Fall 2022, which featured works by the Nuwu Art Collective.
In 2023, we welcomed Justin Favela for his successful solo show Fantasía/ Fantasy. The Nuwu Art Collective also showed Bridges, which included a community art exhibition from art classes sponsored by IndigenousAF. In the Fall, Geovany Uranda, Cesar Piedra, and Scrambled Eggs curated the amazing show Hija/e/o/e(s) de Su-. Over a dozen Latinx artists shared works that explored joy, rebellion, tragedy, and mischief.
In 2024, Nuwu Art hosted its first all-womxn exhibition with Weaving Our Cultures: Forward. This show also featured over a dozen artists and was paired with an array of free public arts workshops. WOC: Forward was followed by the inaugural Native Youth Art Exhibition. This collaboration with Clark County School District and the Indian Education Opportunities Program highlighted over 20+ student artists from 12 different tribes. The Fall show featured Peso Neto - the first solo art exhibition by the talented metalworker artist Luis Varela-Rico. This show represented the net weight of progress, growth and evolution of his artistic creativity over several years.
In 2025, Nuwu Art welcomes Lolita Develay for a solo exhibition that is free an open to the public.
