Sunday, 21 March, 2010 - ABTRACT FORCES-JOEL SMITH, TorC

Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:00:00 -0600

RioBravoFineArt presents 'Abstract Forces', a collection of abstract
paintings created during the past 2 years by Joel Smith, Saturday 13
March 2010.

For this new group of work, Smith is concerned with 'ordering symbolic
fragments into a state of pure painting'. Smith is not concerned with
a description of the seen world, rather he focuses on the mystery of
the human experience. Smith believes that our ambiguities and
contradictions, when isolated into a pictorial form, may be
contemplated. A form where multiple meanings may be examined, where
shifting states of consciousness are engaged. Joel Smith's paintings
are found in collections around the world; the Museum of Modern Art,
New York; Tate Gallery, London; Post Museum, Berne, Switzerland;
California Art Museum, Oakland, CA; National Museum of Modern Art,
Tokyo; Musee de Quebec, Canada. Join us at the Opening Reception 6-9
pm on Saturday, March 13, 2010 and meet the artist. RioBravoFineArt
110 N. Broadway Truth or Consequences, NM 87901. Show ends Sunday 18
April. For more information contact Eduardo Alicea. 575-894-0572

Sunday, 21 March, 2010 - INDIA: Yesterday, Today,&Tomorrow (Public Lecture), Albuquerque

Sun, 21 Mar 2010 15:00:00 -0600

The remarkable growth of India's economy since 1991 has turned that long impoverished nation into South Asia's Superpower second only to China in its rapid development.

India and Pakistan are enemy states with nuclear arsenals. They've fought three wars with Pakistan since 1947. The stakes are very high, not just for those two countries, for for all nations on the globe.

Dr. Stanley Wolpert will outline India's current and future interests, including whether or not India will be able to enrich its poverty-ridden rural sector, just how likely it is that India and Pakistan will employ nuclear weapons against each other, and whether India will eventually disolve into chaos or participate in a new era of peace and progress.

Free parking on the south side of the Museum. Students with a valid student ID are admitted free, general public admission is $15.
