MTC ART GALLERY

As we moved from one year to the next, one century to another, into a new millennium, it became appropriate to reflect on images that bridge one place with another. From the commercial districts of Beijing, China and Santiago, Chile to the quiet contemplation of a Xi'an temple or a Maine lobster pier, the world is full of striking similarities and remarkable contrasts. This exhibit celebrated those parallels and distinctions.

Images displayed:

• "Bridging East and West"
  Sentinel Dome, Yosemite National Park
• "Beauty in the peaks"
  South of Guilin, China and Torres del Paine, Chile
• "Sitting like a buoy"
  Xi'an, China and York Harbor, Maine
• "Go round and round and round in the circle game"
  Hutongs in Beijing & Chapel of Thanksgiving in Dallas, TX
• "Theater companions"
  A young contortionist and his friend
• "Innovation"
  Delivering the goods in Santiago, Chile
• "Beijing rush hour, with bicycles"
  And this is with minimal private automobile ownership*.
