PRLog -- Author Eric Sundwall presents
The Anarchist's Dictator: A Lyrical Riddle at the opening of the Big Eye Gallery's exhibit, "Inspired by Dada & Bauhaus" on May 13
th at 3PM. A brief Question & Answer session will follow a reading from the piece. The opening runs from 1-4PM at the renovated carriage house on the corner of County Routes 401 and 405, in the heart of South Westerlo, New York.
Sundwall states, "It's an honor to be invited to the Big Eye Gallery opening centered on these two art movements." The book was released in September 2016 and challenges the
masters and minions of Midgard to answer the question, "
What is the Anarchist's Dictator?" Sundwall concedes, "while it might remain an enigma", a correct guess could yield a thousand dollars this July. Sundwall continues, "Come join us in the Catskills for some great art and fun, you won't be disappointed."
Over a dozen artists' works will display mixed media sculpture, paintings, photo montage and collage. Societal disillusionment, cynicism, rejection of the media and distrust of authority is as relevant now as it was in 1916 during Dada's conception. The ideal of Bauhaus to "reconstruct"
was the next step after World War I by Walter Gropius and artists like Paul Klee. Big Eye Gallery curator and artist Hope Konecny will be offering the exhibit through June. Weekly events are being scheduled.
The Anarchist's Dictator leads the reader on a surrealistic Valkyrie chase over the burning Rainbow Bridge, to a dolphin tutoring the Amish, a Logan's Run-like tour of a Presidential estate and then some Artificial Intelligence hijinks on Mars. Part short story, essay and a poem of panic, the broad underlying syllogism of this inconceivably brief piece is replete in historical reference, mythical cues and ideological whimsy. Be warned, even the most sophisticated reader may not render the answer correctly. The most honest child may.
