"Visceral Depths"

New works by Jacques Menache

On display through February 8, 2010

Jacques Menache was born in Paris, France and came to Carrboro in 1969. He finished college at NC Central University in Durham, and graduated with a Master's in Fine Arts from UNC Chapel Hill in 1973. In 1974, after a year as an instructor at UNC, Jacques founded The ArtsCenter in downtown Carrboro and served as the Executive Director until 1988.

A retrospective of Jacques' artwork was first shown at his restaurant, El Chilango, in 2000. A second retrospective was exhibited at Panzanella in 2006.

The title of this show, 'Visceral Depths' comes from Jacques' long time interest in surgery, biology, and electron photo-microscopy. This new work combines various materials and techniques such as acrylic, encaustic, collage, assemblage and drawing.
