Working as a sculptor, draftsman, and photographer, he has<br>had more than 20 solo exhibitions in museums and galleries across the United States, including Victoria.<br>His photographs of Lowriders and Art Cars have been exhibited at The Nave Museum and at Five Points<br>Museum of Contemporary Art over the past decade, and he frequently visits the South Texas area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn or outside of his studio, Tepper works incessantly at making art. He excels in an impressive range of<br>media: ceramics, video, painting, photography, sculpture, and drawing. He is also an innovative collector,<br>connoisseur, writer, and art professor. His struggle for inner clarity is fundamental to his work as an artist,<br>and to his vision as a teacher and as man of the world.\u201d \u2013 James Harithas, from the essay \u201cSacred<br>Vessels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This exhibit is curated by Ann Harithas, the museum\u2019s founder and executive director.<br>Five Points Museum of Contemporary Art is located at 1201 North Moody in Victoria, TX and is open to<br>the public 12-5pm Wednesday through Sunday.
