Don’t worry if you haven’t seen every single iteration of “Skyway” throughout Tampa Bay yet. Although the MFA’s “Skyway” chapter closes Aug. 22, artwork from several Tampa Bay-based artists remains at USF’s Contemporary Art Museum (CAM), The Ringling, and Tampa Museum of Art through September and October. You have through Sept. 1 to see Casey McDonough's cosmological installation, Danny Dobrow’s fictionalized pottery studio, and work from six additional Tampa Bay artists at USF CAM.
Although I’m not looking forward to the drive, quite a few of our favorite current and former Tampa Bay-based artists have work on display at the Ringling’s Skyway exhibition in Sarasota, including Ya La’ford, Kalup Linzy, and Jake Troyli. You can see their latest work, along with Carrie Boucher’s Nomad (stylized “NOMAD”) art bus and work from OK! Transmit, Noelle Mason, Eric Ondina, and Heather Rosenbach, at the Ringling through Sept 26.
Last but not least, the Tampa Museum of Art showcases work from 17 Tampa Bay-based artists in their version of “Skyway.” Through Oct. 10. skywaytampabay.com
