This month we welcome Michael Zitka. You may be familiar with his crows and various other birds we've had in the shop over the years. His new work, new bird postures and bird styles plus his push along mechanisms inspired by toys from the early 1900s, seem simple, but they in fact are thoughtful, familiar and comforting in their vivid colors, clean lines and innocent faces. These are trustworthy friends we can keep close and count on to get us through these complex times. Can we become believers in the Temple of the Artful Construction? Will we allow ourselves to fall in love with this artist's homage to beautiful and complicated creatures of the natural world? The answer is an emphatic yes." (Promo Copy)
