These stream-of-consciousness drawings
(pencil and oil on canvas, and pen and ink on paper)
date back to the early 1970s, at a time when the
recent moon landing was capturing imaginations.
Tom Holdcamper at the opening on March 14, 2013
The drawings are a complex filigree of symbols, icons, logos,
and text that imagine what colonizing the moon might
look like and mean for the future.
Whether despite or because of the
patina of time, the suite looks amazingly
contemporary.
