CSUF Grand Central Art Center, Santa Ana says…

Beloved radio host Art Bell is a cross between Jean Shepherd and Fox Mulder, and a man whose paranormality-themed broadcasts were among the most misunderstood and beloved of the last century. A recurring topic on his show is Mel, a man who claimed to have discovered a bottomless hole in his backyard, and whose exploits soon became the stuff of sci-fi legend. LA-based critic, artist, and curator Doug Harvey organizes an exhibition showcasing the Mel-inspired work of open-minded weirdos such as the Rev. Ethan Acres, Georganne Deen, Marnie Weber, Jim Shaw, Jeffrey Vallance, and Mark Dutcher, all of whom make liberal use of mythologies, mysteries, and anomalies in their visual narratives.
