The impulse to pull together art made mostly during the previous winter (and beyond) coincides with the blooming of flowers and overall joy of spring. Biskup sees this as a release of energy. This year he has dug deep into the archives, as he has been lately. The walls are covered in work, both recent and several years old. Much of it...
