Thank you for sending these photos. They remind me so much if all the stories my mother told me as I grew up. I visited Calandra Institute on Friday and saw the exhibit there. I wish you luck in developing the residency.
Thank you for your comment. FYI, there is also an artists’ talk at the gallery tomorrow night, November 19, 6:00 – 7:30 pm http://qcpages.qc.cuny.edu/calandra/node/801
Yes, I know. I wish I could hear be there but I am home again now. I also enjoyed the Italic video and interview with artists.
