Exhibit washes Henry Art Gallery in vivid color
Artist Raúl de Nieves blends mystical symbols and Mexican craft in the Henry Art Gallery’s largest exhibition room for “A window to the see, A spirit star chiming in the wind of wonder … ” Acetate-and-tape “stained glass” windows cover the massive skylights and fill the room with provocative content and vivid color. It’s a welcome break from the sometimes gray Seattle spring. The title of the show comes from a poem composed by de Nieves while he was making the windows. The exhibit runs through Aug. 25.
