Clarification On Vision Gallery

By Alex Novak

After last month’s newsletter on my visit to San Francisco, I receive an email from my friend Neil Folberg, who thought my readers might have been confused over the fate of Vision Gallery.

As Neil noted to me, “You might have mentioned that Vision is still around, albeit in Jerusalem.  Our next major show will be a full-blown show of Michael Light's ‘Full Moon’ prints, running from November 12th through January 14th. Michael's work will be shown along with a selection of my newest Starry Night's imagery and a small group of David Malin's prints of astronomical subjects. ”In addition,” he continued, “I have a show of new work from ‘Starry Nights’ opening November 2nd at Scott Nichols Gallery in San Francisco.” Vision/Neil Folberg Gallery is located at 18 Yosef Rivlin St., 91020 Jerusalem, Israel; Tel:+972-2-622-2253;Fax:+972-2-622-2269; folberg@netvision.net.il
