November 19th, 2012 | by administrator | published in Announcements
Some of the best shows in town have surfaced in November, following the blitz of photography shows known as fotofocus.

I seem to have asked […]

LITHO AT ITS LIVELIEST: Toulouse-Lautrec and the Spectacles of Paris at the Cincinnati Art Museum October 13, 2012 -January 13, 2013 by Fran Watson My first visit to Montmartre was not the flamboyant, sin-drenched, total artistic emersion of which I had dreamed. It turned out to be a touristy square filled with prosaic artists producing […]

DIZYGOTIC Written by Marlene Steele Rabbits, roosters, turtles and dogs. Leslie Shiels’ familiar animals dwell in large confrontational canvases and are exhibited opposite their painted twins, who somehow have popped into completely different bubble worlds. Twins can be monozygotic or “identical” meaning that they develop from one zygote. Dizygotic or ‘fraternal” twins launch from two […]

Book Reviews by Daniel Brown
November 19th, 2012 | by Daniel Brown | published in November 2012

It was shown twice, years ago, at the Cincinnati Art Museum […]
