CALADAN GALLERY presents a juried exhibition
entitled "Eternal Structure". The architecture of form, time, and
spaceb& It is in the act of building that we as humans have claimed
our rights to evolution and the reach for the eternal. A building
defies and embraces physics by virtue of its size and durability. It
stands but for a moment in the great scheme of things, as does a great
tree, but in the focus of our lifetimes, it stands forever. In
addition, one gets the sense of building from other manifestations of
structure, whether it be conceptual, examining the structure of an
idea; or exploring the relationship between one natural form to
another, or a natural form to a man-made one. We are searching for
visual verification of the anatomy of structure. All mediums except
video are eligible. Please go to: www.caladangallery.com to download prospectus
(click on "enter your artwork") OR write to: Caladan Gallery, Box
391939, Cambridge MA 02139 OR call: 617-838-8929 for more information.
