“Political Landscapes,” Exhibition Opening

Political Landscapes
Meet the artist and reception this Sat Nov 11th, 4-6.
 Gary Horn’s paintings are constructed using symbolic elements that amount to profound visual declarations, realizations, visions, dreams, and truths that act within an interchange of personal and social realism, which engages the viewer in the greater discourse of our role as participants in a society where participation often seems futile, and the continued abuse of powers thrive on the blind nationalism of a populace weaned on violence and thus, continual and ever greater suffering.

Italian Movie Night at Gallery 40

Buongiorno, notte (Good Morning, Night) is an Italian film released in 2003 and directed by Marco Bellocchio. The title of the feature film, Good Morning, Night, is taken from a poem by Emily Dickinson.
The movie relates to an important fact in the modern Italian history: the 1978 kidnapping of Aldo Moro former prime minister of Italy and leader of the Democrazia Cristiana  party by the Red Brigades and  the consequences on the political and social life in Italy.

In Italy the 1970s were defined as the Anni di Piombo, Years of Lead because of the darkness of the political scene. For this reason, it seems appropriate to accompany the movie with Negroamaro,  meaning “black and bitter”). A red wine grape that can produce wines very deep in color. Wines made from Negroamaro tend to be very rustic in character, combining perfume with an earthy bitterness.

Movie in Italian with English subtitles: $5 suggested donation to support the program and the Pirandello School of Italian.
