Art Gallery opens 1999 with multimedia show

Jackson, Tenn. - The 51ÉçÇø Art Gallery will open 1999 with a multimedia show called "Crossing The Boundaries." The presentation, which is sponsored in part by the Ohio Arts Council, is a collaborative project by Gaylen Stewart and Steve Scott. The show will be open Jan. 6 - Feb. 8, 8 a.m. - 5 p. m., Monday - Friday.

Stewart is an artist and lecturer from Rio Grande, Ohio, and Scott is a writer and poet from California. Their project explores themes connecting the spiritual and the natural, symbols and objects, images and text, and sound and perception. Through this project, they found similarities in the manner that they both combine several media in order to express their artistic vision. "These parallels culminated in a project that challenges us artistically and intertwined our disciplines into a new form that neither of us had previously, fully envisioned," said Stewart.
