The Annual Birthday Showing of the paintings of
Alan Kapuler PHD/ Mushroom-Visual Artist

Monday, September 3, 2007

Sunnyside Up Cafe
116 Nw 3rd Ave
Corvallis, OR

six to eight pm

I believe this show runs the whole month of September.

Every bit the Rennaisance Man, Mushroom is a visionary scientist, activist, philosopher, gardener, lecturer and painter.
He is also one of my dearest friends and mentors. In large part because of Mushroom, I still believe that humans can be great...can distill pure art through their creations.
In his paintings we see images of his dear family, the Earth, and of course, plants...all imbued with a psychedelic beat-nik sensibility. Brilliant blocks of color overlay curving geometric landscapes, a still room with a child smiling beside a woodstove, a human face as seen by a seed...one might feel pulled to this timeless world, planted there by a master gardener.
Through his art, Mushroom brings the vision and emotion of the sixties to bear, synchronizing that past with all that's happened since. He describes a moment in time, not frozen there, but warm and dynamic. Here, now.
