On Friday, May 9, Jack McCarthy will launch his deluxe limited edition of Jonah Redux, a witty narrative taken from the Old Testament with some liberties that contains powerful relief print illustrations to bring the great, albeit misunderstood story of Jonah to life.
The event takes place at Garcia Street Books, 376 Garcia Street, from 5:00 - 6:00 pm. An exhibition of the prints related to the book will run through May 26. Jack McCarthy has been a printmaker for thirty years and has exhibited throughout the United States. His prints are in collections in this country as well as Brazil, Canada, France, The Netherlands, Japan, and Africa. His day job is Deputy Director of the Palace of the Governors and the New Mexico History Museum in Santa Fe.
