Stellar Gallery Exhibits

The Body Electric

February 12 through March 20, 2010

at Lyles Gallery, CSU, Fresno

An art exhibit produced in collaboration with Ruth Griffin and the CSU Fresno Portable Dance Troupe.

The exhibit features works inspired by the classic poem by Walt Whitman, by the elements of Earth, Air, Fire, and Water, and by the beauty of the human form.

I Sing the Body electric;

The armies of those I love engirth me, and I engirth them;

They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them,

And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the Soul.

Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves;

And if those who defile the living are as bad as they who defile the dead?

And if the body does not do as much as the Soul?

And if the body were not the Soul, what is the Soul?
