ARC Gallery. Chicago. Collaborations
Posted

the opening night was packed!
here is one quote I got for the evening on the collaborative photo wall installation by David and myself. a 6ft by 6ft work , "Glances of Paris and the Gardens of Versailles"
"The show WOWed me. (Especially the piece sporting the"Alice" figure stuck in a Max Ernst collage.) It seems no naturescape or urban touristscape is safe from your frolicsome and probing lenses: Thank God!"

On "Native Vibes" video by Nancy Bechtol
Keeping pace with tribal rhythms from the drum circle, images of dancers and the swirling colors of their mind-bending regalia are sliced, diced, and reassembled in eye-opening ways. These fragments are shuffle played in structural designs which suggest both the beating of the heart and similar movements occurring in Nature.
Distorted like primordial deities seen only in dreams, the (headless) "inverted" native dancers with feet... [more]
