SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Beyond the Wall
DESCRIPTION:“BEYOND THE WALL”\nExhibit at Janice Charach Gallery \nArtist Talk: Sunday\, November 23\, 1 p.m. \nHear from the artists of Beyond the Wall\, a captivating art exhibit\nshowcasing the work of contemporary sculptors who challenge the conventions of\ndimensionality.
