The Wisdom Project


My internet acquaintance Dan Anderson has done it again. He sends me the coolest stuff!

For example this sampling of the film called the Wisdom Project, by filmmaker and photographer Andrew Zuckerman. It includes words of wisdom from 51 luminaries over 65 years of age.

Quentin Warshauer!





Quentin and I shared a studio briefly in 2007 (I think?) I found her paintings riveting but her new assemblage work... WOW!!!! I saw her booth at a recent local show during the set up time the night before. I made a bee line for the table of haunting assemblage sculpture to see who's it was. Low and behold her card lay there,
Quentin Warshauer... I was bowled over. I had no idea. I realized how much we barely know each other, she and I.... all of us. And yet we fear the same stuff, weep over the same stuff, desire the same stuff and we feel so alone.
Her work will grip you.
