Art of Imagination

I attended the opening of the annual Art of Imagination exhibition at Mall Galleries. There I met again one very tired Brigid Marlin, just recently back (and jet lagged) from a show in New York. I had her and Laurie Lipton both sign their pages in Metamorphosis.

I also met Ukrainian sculptor Igor Grechanyk who was also exhibiting his work at the show. I had already seen his work in Rardy van Soest's extensive collection, and was very impressed with it, so it was a pleasure to meet the man in person. However communication was somewhat limited owing to language differences.

I found it amusing that he was there with his copy of Dreamscape and I with my copy of Metamorphosis, both eagerly showing the book to whoever we could. These occasions don't happen so often, so you have to make the most of them.
