October 7 - November 23, 2022
From Invisible Genie:
“This show is titled ‘The Language of Love’ and is primarily a collage based exhibition made from the covers and typed text found in a few dozen romance novels. The work comes from discarded books on the way to a dumpster, incinerator, or literally left some place to rot. What I have been doing with these books the last 20 years are a tribute to this sadly rapidly decreasing delivery method of knowledge. With the advent of digital media and its proliferation, I have been in the position to obtain many thousands of books set for destruction. This show is not only a homage to the book in general, it has a specific meaning as an overall loss of another type – as it seems that most of the things that I love deeply are finding themselves without a home, torn, and hoping for a new life as a new thing.
The Exhibition opens on Oct. 7 from 7 to 10pm at Invisible Genie Gallery located at 321 SW 7th. Amarillo, Texas The show runs till Nov. 23.”
