FIVE POINTS GALLERY

17 Water St. Torrington, CT 
Gallery Hrs 12-5 Th-Sun
Gathering/Exhibit Reception 9/11, 4-7 pm.


A confluence of artists connected to Bridgeport make a brief stop in Torrington. Works share commonalities
regarding aesthetic and imagery, tempering stark reality with nostalgia, absurdity and humor.

Exhibitng artists: Carlos Bautista Biernnay, Dan Makara, Iyaba Ibo Mandingo, Mark Rich, Scott Schuldt

This is an exhibit of healing and memorial as we struggle to process feelings and acknowledge the fallout of recent tragedies, hardships, challenges, alternative facts, and protests, that test beliefs, relationships, and loyalties, exposing who we are, and what we need to mend and cherish.

During this extraordinary time of polarization and hyperbolic hubris, Mother Nature unites us through the Pandemic and global warming, reminding us who/what’s in charge, and that our “Dirt Nap” is guaranteed.

A portion of sales will be contributed to the Bridgeport Art Trail. www.bridgeport-art-trail.org
