Joel B Garzoli Fine Art: Surrealism and Magic Realism.
Artists: John Atherton, Todd Klempan, Robert Rasley, Kristen van Diggelen, Alex Gnidziejko, Aaron Bohrod, Raymond Whyte, Robert Brawley, John Langley Howard, John Lear, Charles Rain, Walter Murch, more.
Review by RWM: Maybe not as miraculous or fantastic as one might wish from magic and the imagination gone wild, but an interesting meld of different symbols and metaphors. Pleasing show which has one wondering what the stories behind the art are all about. Fun and unexpected.
