The Titan and the Fireflies

This week I am writing two blogs: There is just too much going on! With Philadelphia in the World Series, Halloween and all kinds of art openings, the Philadelphia social scene is off to a very great start. My friend Eileen Tognini has curated a show like few have seen before. In an adapted old mill now called the Sky Box Studios where the walls are splattered reminders of Jackson Pollock, new creatures have come alive from very simple drawings. Jason Hackenwerth has taken the art of making poodles out of balloons into another galaxy. Here, in a darkened room, carefully lit creatures appear to float dazzling one and all. If you want to see all the images from the exhibit go my Picasa Web Album: http://picasaweb.google.com/renelctorres/TheTitanAndTheFireflies?feat=directlink

I leave you to enjoy what I shared with a lucky few hundred guests: “The Titan and the Fireflies.”

In the midst of all this wonderment, this child preferred reading a book rather than gaze at fireflies.
