A great crowd turned out October 5 for the opening of Cosmic Blueprint: Archetypes in Contemporary Art, a mixed-media show on view at Burning Bush Gallery in Wheaton, IL. In addition to many of the artists and their families, I joined a team of writers who shared our poems inspired by the archetypes depicted in the artwork. I was pleased to read my contribution,”Cosmic Blueprint”, accompanying the piece by Mary Yesak that was selected as the show’s title poster. This unique exhibition of various artists was created by Jennifer Hereth, recently of the College of DuPage, based on archetypes. Poets and Patrons group led by Wilda Morris joined the Illinois State Poetry Society in the project. The exhibit will also be shown in March at Benedictine University in Lisle.
