Contemporary Chinese Prints from the Meili Collection On display Oct. 1 - Nov. 25. An opening reception will be held Oct. 5 from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. and will include a short talk by Hal Retzler. Mary Retzler was an exchange student at Fudan University in Shanghai for two years in the early 1980’s. In the course of six visits to China, Mary and her parents, Joanna and Hal Retzler, have collected over two hundred paintings and prints, many of which will be on display in this fabulous exhibit. The shows name, “the Meili Collection” is derived from the Chines name “Meili” given to Mary while attending Fudan University. For centuries starting in the Tang Dynasty, printing was used to preserve and disseminate great Chinese paintings. In the social upheavals of the 20th century, the emphasis changed from reproducing traditional painting to the production of prints of great force and realism to be used to promote social changes. In recent years, with the opening of China to outsiders and the loosening of Communist Party controls, print artists have become more free to experiment. Don’t miss this wonderful collection! Gallery hours: Mon, through Thurs. 9 a.m.-8 p.m. Friday and Saturday 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. The gallery is also open before all G. B. Community Theatre performances and during intermission. Admission to the gallery is free.
