Zeitgeist
: n. German: zeit : time, geist
: ghost : the spirit, general trend of thought, or feeling, characteristic
of a time period. "Time" : (? Sumerian) Ti’amat :
the feminine primordial dragon, recounted in the Enuma Elish creation epic,
as coiling in the empty Void of space before the universe existed -- until the
third generation of gods, headed by Marduk vanquished her, and thus created the
black wall of outer space, by dividing her dark body into Above and Below. In
the Hebrew Genesis 1:1, Tehom, means literally, "the Spirit
of God moved upon the face of the waters."
The York Square Cinema Gallery proudly presents its' "Fin-De-Siecle" sampler of artistic diversity, featuring the work of thirteen regional artists. Four themes of the exhibition will reflect the transition of the times, as interpreted each artist, (1) spirituality, (2) technology, (3) sexual expression, (4) the bending of Time around a corner of existence.
This show includes works by: Bob Keating and Rita Valley of Bridge-water; Jodi Strmiska (also guest-curator) and David Teti of Bethel; Chan Davis of Milford; Richard Klein, Assistant Curator of the ALDRICH MUSEUM in Ridgefield; Wendy Gell of Guilford, Robert Cuneo of New Haven, Cathy Valley of Clinton; Peter McClure of Wethersfield; Paul Sukrene of Kent; Richmond Jones of Woodbury; and Jean-Pierre Sergent of New York City.
