Description of Pictures: RADIX: The Eternal Feminine
November 11 – December 17, 2017
RADIX is a collaboration of three Washington artists: Anne Marchand, Pat Goslee and Cianne Fragione. All three work with ideas contained in the concept of the Eternal Feminine, as an original dynamic and cosmic force, in paintings and assemblages. Defying simple definition, this concept has different but analogous meanings for each of them. Each has found a means to express this Feminine energy in contemporary and abstract terms, and from her own perspective.

Eternal Feminine, 2017
KATRAD_171112_017.JPG: RADIX presents the work of three artists-Anne Marchand, Pat Goslee and Cianne Fragione-all working with the concept of the Eternal Feminine. Defying simple definition, the Eternal Feminine has different, but analogous meanings for each artist. Each has found a way to express this Feminine energy in contemporary and abstract terms and from her own perspective. Their work is neither political nor conventional, but deeply expressive and inspired by a timeless and infinite theme.
The exhibition's title derives from a 12th century antiphon that greets Mary, Queen of Heaven, as the Root (Salve Radix) and the Gate (Salve Porta) through whom light has entered the world. Whether the Eternal Feminine is conceived as Mary, or as Sophia, the Wisdom of the Divine, or as the ancient fertility goddess, these are embodiments of a universal energy that is associated with both the earth and with radiant spirit. She is both dark-the place where the seed germinates, and light-the force that generates life. She is both a dynamic and original cosmic force, and a comforter who gives light in dark times.

2017 photos: Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000.
Trips this year:
Civil War Trust conferences in Pensacola, FL, Chattanooga, TN (via sites in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee) and Fredericksburg, VA,
a family reunion in The Dells, Wisconsin (via sites in Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin),
New York City, and
my 12th consecutive San Diego Comic Con trip (including sites in Arizona).
For some reason, several of my photos have been published in physical books this year which is pretty cool. Ones that I know about:
"Tarzan, Jungle King of Popular Culture" (David Lemmo),
"The Great Crusade: A Guide to World War I American Expeditionary Forces Battlefields and Sites" (Stephen T. Powers and Kevin Dennehy),
"The American Spirit" (David McCullough),
"Civil War Battlefields: Walking the Trails of History" (David T. Gilbert),
"The Year I Was Peter the Great: 1956 — Khrushchev, Stalin's Ghost, and a Young American in Russia" (Marvin Kalb), and
"The Judge: 26 Machiavellian Lessons" (Ron Collins and David Skover).
Number of photos taken this year: just below 560,000.
