In her upcoming solo exhibit at the Villanova University Art Gallery, artist and Medford resident Joyce Harris Mayer continues a theme of her long and celebrated career by paying homage in art ot the prehistoric artists whose paictures and symbols provided images of civilization tens of thousands of years before the printed word came along.
Mayer’s exhibit, Rondels Digital Experiments with Space, Line, Color and Form, is her paean to the Paleolithic Age artists who engraved their work on shaped animal bones, creating what is believed to be the world’s first circular art form.
The free public exhibit featuring 43 of her abstract rondels opens on Friday, Jan. 10 and continues through Thursday, Feb. 20 in Villanova’s on-campus Art Gallery in the Connelly Center. An artist’s reception will take place from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Refreshments will be served. Convenient free parking is available.
