There’s is an Art Gallery.
Not here no. Somewhere else. I’ve heard a great deal about this “somewhere else”
now. It is a huge complicated place. The kind of complicated places we only visit
in our dreams.
There are verdant
beautiful forests and dells. There are dark and foreboding bogs and caverns.
There are loud gaudy glittering places and serene noiseless ones. Places of
rich jewel like colors and those of soft muted earthtones. You’ll visit bustling
villages and wander roads wending to remote places.
And there are a lot, I
mean a lot, of people and things to explore and get to know. Some pleasant,
some not, just like everywhere else. In fact, that’s the amazing thing about
this Magical place. It’s so different from where you and I live, but it’s so
very much the same.
When you wander through
the many halls of that art gallery, you’re seeing wonders from a foreign place,
but you also sense the familiar. Almost as if you’re seeing old portraits from
your childhood and own family tree.
This gallery of pictures
is in the World of Paradox. Not heard of it? David Facer discovered this world
(because he’s magic and because he believes such things can be just out of
sight around a corner.) But now something wonderful has happened. Because David
is magic, he’s been able to capture just a tiny bit of this world where
“Impossible is Not a Word...” (don’t ask –it’s a paradox– and there that’s
taken for granted.)
Anyway, he’s able to offer
to you, and to me, a glimpse into his private, special, wonder-filled land. So
our world might be just a tiny bit better ...because now we’ll know more about
Magic. That’s always a good thing.
It’s one thing to see art
framed and hanging on a wall, it’s quite another to experience it live, before
your eyes, ringing in your ears. You can do that very thing. Visit David
Facer’s World of Paradox. It will be unveiled in January of 2015. You’re
welcome to come to our San Francisco Magic Parlor and stay for a while. And after
a while you too might believe that impossible is not a word. At least I have.
