Paul Reynard Exhibit: December 5-9 New York, Art Directors Club

19106_0125_1_lg

The artist Paul Reynard was asked before he died, "What is the place of art in contemporary life?" He responded, "The question could well be formulated as 'What is the place of love in contemporary life?'"

I've always loved that statement--it says so much. I'm also enthralled with his writings on the creative process. He said: "A work of art is necessarily incomplete. It is a way of learning." To my mind, we're all in this process of art-making, whether we think of ourselves as artists...or not.

This December, Art Directors Club Gallery in New York will hold a large exhibition of Reynard's work (he died in 2005.) In my opinion, the best artists show us how to see with love, and that's what Reynard's work is about. Here are the details:

The Art Directors Club Gallery
