Alex Zecca at Berkeley Art Center

One of our favorite artists, Alex Zecca, has work included in a beautiful exhibition at the Berkeley Art Center, on view from October 1 - November 29, 2009. Called Metaphysical Abstraction: Contemporary Approaches to Spiritual Content, the exhibition is curated by Jamie Brunson and Michelle Mansour and looks to be an introduction to work by young artists whose work gives rise to the deeper questions that much of our most significant art does. We're posting late, so if you're in the Bay area this month, be sure to take a look. The link is to an article that describes the exhibition and singles out Alex' work for particular notice. http://www.berkeleydailyplanet.com/issue/2009-10-29/article/34017?headline=Lyric-Representations-of-Sacred-Unattainable-Worlds
