"THEATRE TOWN" An
exhibition of artwork inspired by the theatrical history of
Newark, NJ October
17, 2009 - November 28, 2009
Drama long gone, and drawn into the empty scene, moving guardedly beyond unattended crumble and shards of scrap poetry… Crawling over trash into a lightless wasteland, dark and dripping grief for a glorious past—‘beauty and sadness’ frame paradox." OPENING
RECEPTION
October
16 - November 6 One
night in a dream, figures moved in like silhouettes. I saw
that even with limited information an individual could be
known-not as a black hole in a painted environment, but as
a real presence.
Awake, twenty years later, I take a wrong turn into the sun, beneath the tangled eyelash of blackened industry. In underbelly playgrounds-the glowing One-poised to roll out the message: truth is stranger than any broad-loomed fiction. Behind the 'seens,' reality gets stretched to the edge-just short of falling off. Finding balance, I position to observe power. Journey writes the outline, imagery illustrates metaphor, narrative spells out and sings harmony. Paintings herald meaning and lend credence to the mystery.

11 - DECEMBER 5, 2008 An
exhibition of artwork inspired by and created from the recently
demolished Westinghouse factory in Newark , NJ. Matthew
Gosser, curator: Previous exhibitions have promoted a greater appreciation of sites such as the Pabst Brewery, the old Essex County Jail and the Mulberry Street Firehouse and other structures demolished for the Prudential Arena in Newark.”
ON TOP, acrylic on linen, 32" x 32" ©2008 For 20 years and counting, I observe the parallels of the mystic art-life with the priesthood in chapters of paintings largely focused inside the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart—seen now on high, above all the rubble.
BIRD ON A WIRE, acrylic on linen, 32" x 42" ©2008 Born
in Manhattan, I look back to the famous skyline from a unique
perspective, fresh and forward-looking, beyond the heap of junk.
ALMOST A MEMORY, acrylic on linen, 32" x 32" ©2008 The oncoming light rail, subject of my clock tower mural at Bergenline Avenue Plaza, moves up the middle between station and shadow of imminent past.

Of New Jersey:

21 - MARCH 2 Although
often ignored, souvenirs are ubiquitous representations of
the places we inhabit, written in the kitschy dialect of snow-globes
and postcards. But souvenirs also navigate more intimate geographies,
of personal feeling and memory.
"A
week in San Francisco for the Band's Last Waltz at Winterland, On Thanksgiving Day 1976 "THE BAND" held their final concert in San Francisco where they had begun sixteen years before. As guests, my friend Vicki and I were able to watch rehearsals with the greats of rock and roll in an empty Winterland theater the day before the show which was filmed by Martin Scorsese. Two years after, 'The Last Waltz' was showing in a Paris cinema, offering respite from site-seeing, and 'bringing it all back home.' The painting, completed in 1981 in New Jersey, is a personal souvenir of a souvenir of some unforgettable San Francisco nights."
OCTOBER
15 - DECEMBER 14, 2007 In the last twenty-five years, art that explicitly engages Christian faith has become increasingly visible both in the church and in the secular world. During that same period, many institutions of theological education have come to recognize that art is both a record of what earlier generations have believed about the nature of human life and its relationship to the divine, and a means of accessing our own understandings and emotions. Experiences with and conversations about the arts can deepen our liturgical and devotional life, and perhaps even help us to bridge denominational divides. The proposed exhibition entitled, "Body of Christ" is one way to foster such experiences and conversations.
