Works by Bradley McCallum and Jacqueline Tarry at the Burchfield Penney Art Center

The dominant “look” of the art of Bradley McCallum and Jacqueline Tarry on show at the Burchfield Penney Art Center is a blur. You see but don’t quite see. Or double vision. As if from two perspectives. Oppressor and oppressed. Master and slave. And past and present. Sometimes the message seems to be about frustration and despair. Sometimes the reference is to faith and hope, as in the New Testament definition of faith as “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” One part of the exhibit is called The Evidence of Things Not Seen.
