Young Hearts Run Free

April 18 – June 14, 2025
Young Hearts Run Free | Red Gate Gallery

Martha Valenta’s four-piece polyptych, Record Playa, will be featured at the group exhibition Young Hearts Run Free at Red Gate Gallery. Drawing from her Gen X roots, this nostalgic artwork remixes her earlier piece originally exhibited in the Childhood Revisited series (Sheldon Art Gallery, 2022). Record Playa invites viewers into her 1980s childhood memories, exploring themes of nostalgia, identity, and the enduring power of music and culture from our formative years.
