Mark Horst's New Paintings at Stillwater Public Library

In March and April, the Stillwater Public Library Gallery is hosting a show of new paintings by Stillwater artist Mark Horst. Horst’s show is entitled your brother’s blood. In Horst’s description of his new works, he states, “Cain killed Abel: murderer and victim. The resentful one; the howling, complaining one; the gifted one; the rejected one; the haunted one. Cain killed Abel, but it was Abel’s blood that cried in the field. Once that happened they were joined forever—brothers. Am I my brother’s keeper? Which brother needs keeping? These paintings hold a space for us to look at ourselves.”
