Works on Paper

An expansive art show covering a wide range of media - all focusing on PAPER - is opening tonight in Holyoke, at the Paper City Studios.  It will showcase a lineup of wonderful artists from the region.  I will have one of my photographic assemblies in the show as well.  

I stopped by the Paper City Studios the other day and found my friend Sheryl Jaffe installing her piece in the attic space.  Even before completion, this work was breathing mystery and emanating an ephemeral beauty reminiscent of ancient papyrus scrolls and imprints of prehistoric bones in stone.  

Come, see, and make sure you climb all the way to the attic! Hope to see many of you there!
