MPBN radio features story on 91AV Art Gallery exhibition on Mt. Katahdin

MPBN radio on Oct. 15th ran a feature story by Irwin Gratz on the 91AV Art Gallery exhibition "A Mountain Rising: The Art of Katahdin." 

Gratz visited the exhibition with Gallery Director Anne Zill and David Little, author of the book The Art of Katahdin and co-curator of the show with 91AV Professor Emeritus Stephen Halpert. The Art Gallery features 80 works depicting Katahdin and related images that will be on display through Oct. 27th.

During the story Little explains that "as you travel up there [to Katahdin], it changes. The silhouette, the profile shifts so frequently that you end up kinda scratching your head going, 'What is Katahdin?' It really is truly, a magnificent, diverse group of mountains, but with this masif in the middle. And it's a great challenge to artists."
