In this issue: gallery show in Princeton
Web site recommendations: IT/women/art/chocolate
As luck would have it, one of my favorite Hungarian artists, Istvan Orosz,
will have an exhibition at a local Princeton gallery. I encourage those
of you in the area to come to the opening reception (Fri & Sat Sept 27 &
28th) or check out the show some other time before October 24th. For more
info, see the gallery's page here: http://www.mchildcontemporary.com .
For more examples of the artist's work, see
