810 State Street New Haven, CT
Artist's Reception: Saturday April 4th, 7:30 PM.
Bob
Cuneo, born in 1939, is a life-long resident of Connecticut, mostly as a
citizen of New Haven. With an Art School BFA and MFA from Yale
University, he
was for 26 years a full-time faculty member at the University of
Bridgeport, until 1989. After leaving that post, he moved away from the
ideas of contemporary art and devoted most of his work to his long-time,
solitary practice of neo-pagan Wicca. In this
capacity, he was a staff-artist for the nature spirituality quarterly
CIRCLE MAGAZINE (published 1984-2012), a professionally produced
publication of Circle Sanctuary in Wisconsin. He has regularly had inked
drawings and some color-covers in this magazine
since 1985. Artist's Reception: Saturday April 4th, 7:30 PM.
Painted in the Magic-Realist style, these pairs of six divine archetypes are manifested in radiant pigment colors. Their faces gaze out to the viewer with the clear eyes of frankness, kindness, and mystery, their costume garb telling the symbolism of their place and purpose in the universe, and their roles among the other gods, and in the lives of earthly men and women.
Bob Cuneo, also called by his Hermetic name “Fra Mercurius,” also has a web-page of his miniature allegory paintings visible on Hanneke Hollander's website at http://www.seezoo.com/cuneo.htm
Exhibition: April 4 - April 30, 2015 during irregular store hours.

Photography and Sculpture have many similarities in both creation and
vision. Both disciplines place objects in contexts that hopefully broaden
the objects' meanings. Both disciplines can investigate textures touched
and untouched. In both of these practices, objects, textures and their
contexts are transformed by an artist's alchemy.
