Et. al Gallery: Kate Bonner: The Path of a Free Object.

Comment by AB: Kate Bonner tells me she's interested in new ways of presenting prints. That's so direct and clear even I can understand it. And I love when I can understand "it". Always makes the viewing experience so much more meaningful when I have some inkling of what I'm looking at. But I digress. The way Bonner integrates prints with sculptural elements is particularly gratifying. It's all good here-- technical skills, mastery of medium, attention to detail, the ability to materialize a vision, and high standards for what constitutes an exhibitable work of art. Ample upside here. This show's a winner. Go see.

FFDG: Jeremy Fish - Yesterdays and Tomorrows.

Comment by AB: An impressive 20-year survey of work by Jeremy Fish features a solid wall of ink drawings, chronologically ordered, along with a selection of larger pieces along the opposite wall. Bask in the talent and imagination of this truly gifted artist. Definitely worth a visit.
