Santa Fe, NM (1888PressRelease)
October 31, 2009 - Farrell Fischoff Gallery, in conjunction with Jay Etkin Gallery is pleased to host a book reading and signing by noted Santa Fe artist and author, Stan Berning. Berning will be reading excerpts from his book "about art" on Saturday, October 31 from 2 - 3PM. Admittance is free.
Here's what Amazon has to say about Ohio-born Berning's latest book:"This morning I am contemplating how we humans, awkwardly tangled in dreams of salvation, struggle to lend meaning to a physical world that is most often brutally indifferent. It may be that the one thing of substantial power left to us is our own imagination." Thus begins the story of a road trip up the West Coast of North America; a journey which comes to a dramatic conclusion months later in Mexico. A unique look at the nature of prayer, the power of dreams, and the risks and rewards we all face imagining ourselves into the world, 'about art' is the memoir of one artist's quest to understand the life he has lived.
Berning's latest series of artworks, "A Natural History 2009" is also on display in the gallery.
