Myron Rubenstein: Figures In-taglio+
September 8th – October 13th
Opening Reception:  Saturday, September 8th, 6:00 – 8:00pm


Myron Rubenstein's statement for the exhibition, like his work, defies the traditional method.

    All of my art work relates to a mind-blending 
                        and intertwining of fragmented synapses.
            Flashing thoughts of fantasy unknown
                        but revealed in my artwork.

            It is a reality that exists only in our subconscious 
                        that drives us forward.
            People in a transformation of many faces
                        sliding into various places 
            Confined in questions with no answers.
            Seeing infinite humans traces.

            Detecting human sounds and constant rants 
                        directing art to make sense of my senses.
            And a sense of my time.

Myron previously worked as a graphic designer, and created art for years with traditional media, with a focus on canvas, oil and mixed media. Over the last few years he has embraced his digital skills, searching for the convergence of traditional painting, photography and the virtual world of computing. Incorporating today's technology with traditional painting on canvas has led to a very personal form of computer generated art. He has most recently shown in the Candita Clayton Gallery in Pawtucket, RI. Rubenstein was awarded a 2012 RISCA project grant for his intaglio prints, which will be showcased in this exhibition. 

The public is invited to attend the opening reception held from 6:00-8:00 p.m. on Saturday, September, 8th

Hera Gallery is free and open to the public and is accessible to persons with disabilities. Parking is available behind the building or across the street.

Repost regarding installation at Providence Place Mall

The Following is a repost from todays Providence Journal. I thought that those of you heading to the Providence Place Mall might find this particular use of commercial and communal space interesting. He wanted a new sofa. She thought the apartment could use more color. When friends stayed over, they often wound up sleeping on the floor. Clearly, everyone agreed, it was time for a change. And so, just days before their secret hideaway was discovered and their exploits became the stuff of local legend, the artists who spent nearly four years homesteading inside Providence Place mall were about to do something that homeowners everywhere can relate to. They were about to redecorate. “We had it all planned,” says Michael Townsend, the lanky 37-year-old mastermind behind what some have called inspired performance art and others, including mall officials, have termed an illegal “violation” of private property. “We had a bunch of new furniture, including a new sofa, new chairs and a very nice
