The Hymns of Orpheus XXXII.
TO VICTORY. The FUMIGATION from MANNA.
O Powerful Victory, by men desir’d,
With adverse breasts to dreadful fury fir’d,
Thee I invoke, whose might alone can quell
Contending rage, and molestation fell:
‘Tis thine in battle to confer the crown, 5
The victor’s prize, the mark of sweet renown;
For thou rul’st all things, Victory divine!
And glorious strife, and joyful shouts are thine.
Come, mighty Goddess, and thy suppliant bless,
With sparkling eye, elated with success; 10
May deeds illustrious thy protection claim,
And find, led on by thee immortal Fame.
Victory, 2013

Varnish Fine Art’s 10 Year Anniversary Show
APRIL 20 – MAY 18, 2013
Opening Reception: Saturday April 20, 6-9pm
Varnish Fine Art presents DECADE-1, a group exhibition of fourteen artists to celebrate the gallery’s first ten years in the art scene. Founders Jen Rogers and Kerri Stephens continue to direct the San Francisco-based gallery into the next decade after an exciting ten years presenting contemporary art in the US and Europe.
In this exhibition, Varnish Fine Art brings together a diverse group of artists whose work is emblematic of the artistic values the gallery holds dear. Each of these artists infuses their works with meaningful messages while displaying their finely honed skills. Not afraid to walk the edge, these painters, sculptors, print makers and photo illustrators take the viewer on journeys of the mind and soul.
