BEATRIZ Ledesma art exhibit march & april ![]() Faithful to her Latin American Argentine) roots, the artist, Beatriz E Ledesma, presents a vivid exhibition of oil paintings that explore the individual and collective unconscious. "...An object becomes symbolic of a dream, a memory, a fiber of my imagination. My attention to painting is that of a focused researcher utilizing my inner dialogue and the connection with the world around me as the library from where to bring forward images." The works on display during March and April are drawn from two larger series--mostly from "Not Quite There Yet" and from "Personal Belongings." The artist's statement for Not Quite There Yet follows: "In the “civilized madness” of war, hate, decadent religion, chaos and destruction, my consulting room for patients, led me to think more about the internal aspect of safety in a chaotic world. ... What does it mean to be safe? How do we construct a safe inner space? How do we feel internally safe where everything we have taken for granted seems to be threatened? Not Quite There Yet is my contribution to the interaction between outer and inner worlds. It explores our attempts to find a safe space in a world of chaos and destruction. The canvas is divided into two sections representing inner and outer worlds. The outer section is an ethereal depiction of chaos -- rough strokes and poignant dark needles alluding to our wounded outer world. The inner window is clear, representing a self-reflecting, intuitive and spiritual space where awareness and imagination dare to transcend our greedy, ego-based mentality that is destroying our wonderful planet. The work proposes a spiritual path establishing balance and awareness in our dear planet."

Meantime, enjoy the show in our Blue Hallway. ![]() Chicago vocalist Jamie O’Reilly will present a very traditional St. Patrick's Day concert at Wishbone on March 17th featuring Irish songs from her remastered album "I know where I'm going." Her lilting soprano will be backed by Pete Swenson's lush guitar and Al Ehrich on bass for an evening of old world charm. The concert itself is a ticketed event where advance tickets may be purchased from Ms. O'Reilly's blog at http://www.jamieoreilly.com/jamies-st-pats-concert-tickets-for-wishbone-317/#. The food will, of course, be Wishbone and ordered off the menu like any night (but with some Irish specials to enliven the mix). Please note that this is a popular concert so order tickets in advance and then call Wishbone for actual dinner reservations. We will be offering regular dinner service in the room not occupied by Irish song, but the concert is well worth the $20 for advance tickets and, as a special treat, the trio will be joined on the 17th by Michael (the Dutchman) Smith on guitar. If you're looking for something besides inebriation to celebrate the shamrock and all things Irish, this concert may open your eyes . . . and certainly ears to a different set traditions and heritage. Call the restaurant if you have any questions. See you on the 17th! |
