Genesis (one of many)

Genesis Microdrawing 70-9 – 2.5″x2″ – India ink on Strathmore paper, 1970

Maybe some day, my dear friend, the talented and lively, Aribert Munzner will have an exhibit and a book published there.
Let’s make it happen!

Addenda

A presentation by Artibert Munzner on the topic of The Mythology of Cosmology.

I highly recommend also a gem of a small book produced in 2000 with beautiful reproductions and an extensive interview: Aribert Munzner : Teacher, Colleague, Artist by MCAD Press.

To ride the unbalance* between:
1. excellence and a kind, singular and porous identity that contains some of the scruples, humor, humility, musicality & the beauty of a harsh and confusing, yet benign and rich reality – away from distractions.
2. the stupidity and blindness of complacency, violence, injustice, pretense, egos, short-term… wishful… and group “thinking,” and empty talk – in all of their surprising embodiments. And the false sense of fullness all of this provides.

1. Beware of those who claim to be strong – they are often dangerous.
2. Unmask the hoax of “centrality” – ask an “EX-centric” for assistance?
3. Perceive the arrogance of normalcy: everybody, in one way or another, is handicapped… which brings us back to 1.
