New art exhibit: Greg Dunn

An exhibition of artworks by Greg Dunn is currently on display in the Garrison Institute ambulatory. Dunn, a neuroscience PhD (Penn), is a great fan of minimalist scroll and screen painting from the Edo period in Japan. His realization that the elegant forms of neurons (the cells that comprise your brain) can be painted expressively in the Asian sumi-e style has led him into an exploration of the fusion of art and science through designs in gold leaf.
