Two Very Different Exhibits Of Religious Artistic Expression in Connecticut

HARTFORD COURANT
By SUSAN DUNNE
Robin Rice of Enfield created this angel painting. It is part of the "Angels in the Casa" art exhibit at ArtSpace.
CONNECTICUT---Ever since mankind began creating art, spirituality oriented themes have been eternally the most popular. Two shows in Connecticut, a contemporary show open for just a few weeks and a show of ancient art open until next April, show different facets, and different eras, of celestial artistic inspiration. In today's secular world, any subject matter is open to artists. Spiritual art is increasingly in the minority. Yet the artists gathering beginning this weekend at ArtSpace in Hartford have one thing on their minds: angels. [link]

Who wouldn't want to see the exhibits, but also I would love to visit the KoC museum.
