Bruno David Gallery: Friday, 20 July 2007

Opening reception for Frank Schwaiger on this Friday, July 20 from 6 to 9 pm. The gallery is also showing in the New Media Room a video by Leslie Laskey.

Mr. Schwaiger latest works are not quite sculpture; these forms are more in touch with the presence between what is real and what is not. The things we might have forgotten, the things we never knew or noticed--the shadow that follows us, the light that warms us, the basic aspects of existence.Frank Schwaiger has exhibited his work widely. He is a graduate of the Washington University in St. Louis, School of Architecture, and received his Master from Southern Illinois University.

In the New Media Room, Leslie Laskey shows a 3 minutes video made of an exhibition he had in the winter of 1987 titled Archeologie. The exhibition was about recycling (Non- Biodegradable) trash picked up along the shore of Lake Michigan, and fashioned into an art installation.

The gallery is open free to the public and the hours are 10 AM to 5 PM Wednesday - Saturday, and by appointment.
