The Catherine G. Murphy Gallery at St. Catherine University presents Form & Memory by installation artist Jody Isaacson. The installation includes more than 160 hand dipped life pendulums hung from the gallery ceiling.
Each wax form represents a person, now passed away, from Isaacson’s life. One dip for each year of an individual life accumulates into a candle pendulum that represents the time spent to remember each individual. Each relationship builds the installation, the artist’s life history currently suspended in the gallery.
The exhibition runs November 2–December 18 with an Artist Reception Saturday, November 7, 6–8 p.m. The Artist Reception with Jody Isaacson will include a lecture and gallery talk at 7 p.m. For more information, visit or call Ann at 651-690-6810.

Karen associated with members of WARM for years and I just wanted to let everyone know. To see a preview of the exhibit, visit art critic Ed Newman’s blog: ennyman.org.

Karen, who passed away in 2013, was a dedicated and very talented artist. This exhibit will be a very special event. Please let all your members know about it.
Thank you.
Loren Martell.
