Former artist resident exhibits at Montalvo

Daniel Raffin, an artist-in-residence at Villa Montalvo in 1997, exhibits "the tabular ear" March 8 through April 5 at the Gallery at Montalvo.

In describing his exhibit, which includes assemblages and drawings, Raffin explains that "the tabular ear attempts to hint at the experience or feeling that speech can be a kind of writing, that the spoken inscribes itself upon the listener as writing inscribes itself upon a tablet."

A reception for Raffin takes place March 8 from 1 to 3 p.m. An open studios event, which includes performances and readings, takes places the same day from 1 to 5 p.m. Current resident artists are sculptor/painter Elizabeth Ingraham, painter Michael Gallagher, composer Joelle Wallach, writer Richard Grayson and playwright Paige Evans.

Villa Montalvo is located at 15400 Montalvo Road. For gallery information, call 961-5813. For open studios information, call 961-5818.
