Matthew Dennison book covers

Art talk at Froelick Gallery.

Matthew showed 365 of these, one per day.  The books, some over a hundred years old, belonged to his parents, whose practice was never to discard a book. Matthew painted them in response to the day's news, and calls the collection "Democracy."
