FEBRUARY
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.
