Our Fragile
Home, a touring exhibition of art
created by the Manchester Center, VT husband / wife artist team of Pat Musick
and Jerry Carr will be on view at the Housatonic Museum of Art, Bridgeport, CT beginning
Thursday, September 5 and will continue through October 20, 2013. A reception
for the artists, free and open to the public, will be held on September 5th
from 5:00 – 7:00 pm.
This exhibit, which exhorts us to
take care of, nurture and respect our fragile planet, contains a message that
has universal appeal. Based on inspiration from the words space travelers use
to describe their first glimpse of the earth from outer space, it is a
testament to a shared world-view and understanding of how vulnerable we all
are. Amazingly, the sight of our earth from space inspires the same
words no matter the differences in nationality, language, social, religious or
political values of the viewer.
