| Rosie's Blarney - On Joan Danziger at Osuna
Time has been running away again. No blog in so long! So let me begin again with my friend Joan Danziger’s show at Osuna Art in Bethesda. The very well attended opening was a few weeks ago on April 12 – Ramón Osuna’s gallery had outdone itself in the way the sculptures were lit – and Michael Sullivan has already reviewed the show in the Washington Post on Friday, May 2. | | Rosie's Blarney - On the Pope, Blogs to Come and Why I Blog Spring has truly arrived here in Washington, DC, and so has Pope Benedict XVI, although he has now gone to New York. He celebrated a huge Mass at the Washington Nationals stadium here, and I am very proud of our friend Ronald Stolk whose stock went up overnight as he played the organ. | | Rosie's Blarney - On Life's Crises and the Spotless Mind I thoroughly enjoyed reading in today's Washington Post's Health Section, the articles "What Crisis?" (pages F1 and F5) by Stefanie Weiss, as well as "Lulled into Numbness" by Douglas LaBier (page F5). They are about the midlife crisis, whether it exists, when it hits, if it hits at certain intervals, why it hits and what to do. | | Rosie's Blarney - On Prison Art Did you know that there is such a thing as Prison Art? And that there is a Prison Art Gallery? It is located at 1600 K Street NW, Ste 501, in Washington, DC (phone 202 3931511), and it is open every day till 5pm. I picked up a little newspaper entitled Art for Justice the other day - published in conjunction with Street Sense, the homeless journal. The featured artists are all very skilled indeed. | | Rosie’s Blarney - On The Art of Art Work Titles: John Alexander John Alexander at the Smithsonian American Art Museum , Washington, DC
What makes a really great artist? Talent, skills, passion, prolific output as well as the proven ability to get oneself “out there”? Obviously, all that will get you quite far on the way, but something must be still missing – or Thomas Kinkade would hang in museums, too. Now, don’t get me wrong: I do not compare John Alexander with Thomas Kinkade. |
