As Above, So Below:…

It all starts with the Durance, this so capricious beautiful Provençal river, beneficial for its water supply to the arid lands of sunny Provence. This river, sometimes so tumultuous and dangerous, is often found in a peaceful flow at the limit of aridity. Two men stroll along the banks, even in the bed, of the hypnotic water of their childhood. One is an internationally known writer: Jean Giono. The other…
Satellite Space in New York presents a Hunter Barnes retrospective titled Visions of Tomorrow. Barnes presents it thus: “An intersection of thoughts of where I have been lead and invited.
