On April 18th an art exhibition at the Carl Cherry Center in Carmel kicks off a series of events celebrating Joseph Campbell, his time in the Monterey Peninsula, and his love of myth. The art exhibition “Joseph Campbell: The Artist’s Way” gathers the work of contemporary artists who resonate with Campbell’s ideas on art and experience.
Snap shot of the “Working Art: Joseph Campbell at His Desk” installation as it was in progress down in our archive office.
Also on view is the installation “Working Art: Joseph Campbell at His Desk” assembled from his collection at Opus. Experience Campbell’s New York work space where he formed his major works on mythology. See the elements Campbell found essential to creation: notes, reference books, artistic images, artifacts, and other objects that work the imagination.
