WAR GAMES

by Kari Seymour-Gunter

In the Christian calendar Advent is a season of watchful waiting. For miltary families in wartime, it is always Advent.

January 7-February 26, 2005

A terribly important and terribly moving exhibit about this sort of advent showed at Susan Hensel Design at 3441 Cedar Ave. S, Mpls. Kari Gunter-Seymour, an artist, a single parent, a pacifist waits for her son's safe return from Iraq. It is an untenable waiting. To make the waiting possible, she has become very active and invites you to join her.
