Unconditionally Us: A Reflection

Dante Cohen, Jessica Burke, Katie Allen, Larry Cwik, Lauren Henkin and Dennis Worrel

Dennis Worrel

For this exhibit, curator Carl Annala chose artists, including Dennis Worrel (image right), whose work is reflective of themselves, their relationships and society.  While all the art is beautiful, many of the perspectives are not apologetic or idealized.  Rather than romanticizing, they express honesty, agression, frustration, loss and empathy with subtle doses of humor.

 

An opening reception for all artists will be held on First Tuesday November 2nd from 6 to 8pm.  Enjoy refreshments provided by Claeys Catering and a house concert in our lobby.
