Three different creative approaches on exhibit at Temple Habonim

The March/April show in the Gallery at Temple Habonim features three very different creative approaches. The show will open with a wine and cheese reception on Sunday, March 5 from 1 to 3 p.m. It continues through April 27.

Challenged by the complex process of printmaking, Bunny Fain’s work explores an idea and stretches the boundaries of skills and perception. He mixes media, which may include pastel, intaglio and digitation, may be printed on mylar and may include chine-collé.

The photography of Barbara Grace DeCesare expands our view of the world. She sees things in a “greater way” which makes the viewer see that light that falls on a flower or the strength and beauty of a building. In her words, “Photography is not a destination for me, but a journey.”

Mural 5777 is a creation of the religious school classes of Temple Habonim under the guidance of artist/educator Seymour Glantz and education director David Perolman. Through Hebrew letters and artistic representation, the students illustrated the concept of Kehillah Kedoshah, our holy community.

The Gallery at Temple Habonim was inspired by Bunny Fain. At the reception on March 5, the gallery will be renamed “The Bunny Fain Gallery” in his honor.

Temple Habonim is at 165 New Meadow Road in Barrington. Gallery hours are Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 4 p.m., Fridays from 9 to 1 p.m. and by appointment. For information, call 401-245-6536 or email gallery@templehabonim.org.
