Here is the postcard for the upcoming gallery show at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. The opening reception will be on Saturday, November 14 from 3 to 5pm, and the show will be up through December 10th.
The title for Call and Response is borrowed from the musical terminology relating to a style of singing in which the melody sung by one singer is responded to or echoed by another. The purpose of this project is to facilitate an exchange between art and writing based on the same fundamental idea of call and response. In this project, artists respond to writing and writers respond to art. Each participant contributes two works for the exhibition–the first being for the Call component and the second being for the Response. Over a dozen talented painters, poets, printmakers, fiction writers, sculptors, installation and video artists are participating.
