Family and Children's Services of the Capital Region has opened a Social Art Gallery

The Gallery is open to the public first Friday of the month from 6 pm to 9pm. This is a Gallery that actually connects people, where they can come together to celebrate their diverse cultures and differing perspectives. The grand opening on Oct. 3 coincided with the opening of Italian artist Pietro Angelo Maffei's exhibition, "La Famiglia: Uno Studio Mataprospettivismo," which will be on display until Jan. 2. Blending bright colors and exaggerated forms in 52 paintings and 6 sculptures, Maffei — who traveled to the United States for the first time to supervise the installation of the exhibit — is well known in Italy for his distinct representation of the family. He has exhibited his artwork throughout Europe and was recently commissioned to create a sculpture for a WWII memorial in Italy For the opening, Family and Children's Services joined with community organizations, including Laziali Nel Mondo, which celebrates Italian culture.

My rooster is
The means, is when The whom and the reason, the where
He is the actor, the minstrel
“The one the nobody and the hundred thousand’s”
( L’uno nessuno e i centomila. L. Pirandello)
He is the background, the frame
The dream and the emotion
The prologue, the epilogue
The course of an orgasm
It is the aim, the magic.
Pietro Maffei
