as the dreams. What was lost
was more than these brief ex-
periments in lifestyle but an
imagination which honored
ones’ visions and possibilities
of a joyful existence. Though
those aspirations of youth
now seem distant, there is a
residual fl ame, burning deep
and still revolutionary and
radical in it’s demand for joy
and love.
“For this call, I’d like to
see your dreams or night-
mares as we face the anxiety
of the present.”
“Fairy Tales and Nuclear
Bombs” will show in the gal-
lery until Tuesday, Nov. 7.
The gallery (1045 Marine

ASTORIA — LightBox Pho-
tographic Gallery hosts the
opening and artists’ reception
of “Fairy Tales and Nuclear
Bombs (What happened to
the Summer of Love),” 5 to 8
p.m. during Astoria’s Second
Saturday Art Walk, Oct. 14.
The exhibit features the
work of 36 photographic art-
ists from around the country
exhibiting images that focus
on their reaction to this year’s
political environment.
The exhibit features
work in many photographic
processes and interpretations
of the theme. Diane Fenster,
a prominent artist from Paci-
fi ca, California, who works
in digital imaging, juried the
exhibit of 54 pieces.
Fenster wrote:
“The Summer of Love
and the hippie revolution
were primarily centered on
remaining outside the taint of
the major societal forces of
war and greed. Dreams were
cultivated spiritually and
chemically. The post-WWII
years of repressive ideas,
clothing and regimentation
exploded into a wide array of
color and music and dance,
expressions of both individ-
ual dreams and visions of a
society which nurtured cre-
ativity and personal liberty
to the utmost, while taking
consideration of the environ-
ment in a sustainable way.
“Now, decades later, the
tie dye clothes are as tattered
