I am very pleased to announce that my work will be included in the 2010 Beyond/In Western New York Biennial called Alternating Currents. Hosted by the Albright-Knox and a dozen other Buffalo venues this Biennial continues to attract more national attention each year. My work will be housed in CEPA Gallery. The show opens September 24 and runs to mid December. For more information visit beyondinwny.org and stay tuned for more details.

"We are very excited about the scope and caliber of the work of our regional artists," said John Massier, the 2010 Project Director. "Beyond/In Western New York 2010: Alternating Currents is the gateway for local, regional, and national audiences to experience all that this region offers, not just in art, but architecture and culture as well."
