Last fall I participated in an exhibition in Anchorage, Alaska co-curated by my good friend Jimmy Riordan. The show was a comprised of work by fifty artists and all of it was inspired by Le Roman du Lievre, a French novella from the early 20th century about St. Francis of Assisi, a hare, and the after-life.
On the 17th of May a van full of artwork and show curators/maestros Leslie Rosa and Jimmy Riordan will leave Anchorage and begin heading east. Around the 12th of June it will arrive in New York. Between these two dates, it will zigzag across Canada and the US, meeting up with all of the artists that participated in Marginalia (or at least those that are on this continent).
