RAMAYANA,
at The Carver
Theater, 226 Hackberry, San Antonio, TX
Bihl Haus Arts in partnership with Katveri Natya
Yoga (Dr. Sreedhara’s troupe) presents a lyrical
Indian dance
interpretation of Ramayana. Ramayana is the
story of the triumph of good over evil. This ennobling
epic, originally written in Sanskrit by Sage Valmiki, has
been re-visualized in several languages by numerous poets.
This production of Ramayana, under the direction
of Dr. Sreedhara, is based upon one of the most popular
versions. The performance includes special guest
appearances by dancers from New
York and San Diego,
as well as artists from Katveri Natya and the Arathi
School of Indian Dance. Tickets ($10 adults/$5 seniors,
students and military with ID) are available in advance
beginning Aug. 1st at
www.ticketmaster.com,
all Ticketmaster outlets, by calling
800-745-3000 or at the
Carver Box Office (Ph: 207-2234).
Friday, August 28, 5:30-8:30 pm
Opening
Reception for OBJECTIVE Space.
Artists David Almaguer, Rex Hausmann and Russell
Stephenson, three members of the artists collective “Texas
Cannons of Proportion,” commandeer the entire Bihl Haus
space--real and imagined, positive and negative. They
find inspiration in its physical and intellectual
proportions. Their individual works will take over the
windows, the fireplace, the trap door, and even the
exterior to surround a collaborative installation in the
center of the gallery. This is going to be a dynamic
show!
Exhibit continues through September 28, 2009
Gallery Talk TBA
Saturday, October 10, 5:30-8:30 pm

The evening
features adult ‘art play’ stations set up around the
gallery and pool patio that provide a preview of the
weekend workshops offered in October and November
(schedule forthcoming). Local non-profits that use art to
help their constituency, including Inspire Fine Arts
Center, and the Children’s Bereavement Center, will have
stations demonstrating the benefits of art in their
healing programs. Live jazz, a classical Indian dance
performance, and food and drink round out the evening.
Tickets are

Opening
Reception for Rx Art: Take your medicine.
Is art medicine? Art is fundamental to life. But because
we tend to think of it as something produced only by
certain creative individuals we may lose sight of art’s
potential to heal both artist and viewer, and on all
levels--spiritual, mental, emotional, physical. This
exhibition features works by health professionals who are
also artists. The Artist-Healers address how their
particular artwork aids in self-care and healing and helps
them in their work with clients and patients.
Participants include Jane Appleby, MD, FACP Diplomat;
Raphael Guerra, DDS; Beth Engelsgjerd McMahon, MD; Rudy
Molina, MD; Valerie W. Mortensen, EFT; Lea Ann Tinney, RMT;
Cynthia Poe, CBP and yoga instructor, and others
Exhibit continues
