Another unsettling element in modern art is that common symptom of immaturity,

the dread of doing what has been done before.
 -
Edith Wharton

 

Our choicest plans  have fallen through,  our airiest castles tumbled over, because of lines we neatly drew and later neatly stumbled over. - Piet Hein, poet and scientist (1905-1996)
 

 

 

 

There is some action in PE next week, with several openings taking place - see the Eastern Cape  page. 

SINCERE CONDOLENCES to the family and friends of LEN HARVEY, who passed away unexpectedly.  His gentle, warm-hearted and generous spirit were a beautiful presence at the Art with Heart auction.

We are leaving the photo's up for one more month, so make sure to copy and paste if there are any you would like to keep.    Read the letter from AACL and see the photo's on the Eastern Cape page.
