“Fall in love, fall in line, fall face first, fall head over heels, fall into bed, fall into the lake, fall in place. As the leaves fall, somehow everything falls into place.
Fall out of love, fall out of line, fall out of favor, fall out of bed, fall out of place, fall out of reasons, fall out from your words or actions.”
“Fall in – Fall Out” has a different meaning for each of us. Yet, “fall is more than a season. We “fall in… love”, we “fall out…of favor”. We “fall in line,” we protect ourselves from the “fall out”. This exhibition explores the vast range of truths that shape our personal seasons regardless of “Falling In” or “Falling Out”.Fritz (Steven) Weiss, Brian Keogh and Joe Banish
