ALPHANUMERIC PAINTINGS by AUGUST HIGHLAND

"Sacred  Burial Grounds"

Opening Reception: Friday May 12, 2006, 6-8pm

On  view May 12 through June 24

Like ancient  civilization slumbering beneath cities of glass and street, 
classical poetries  are buried deep in August Highland's visual texts on large 
canvases, which  explore the modern experience of language.  

August Highland is an  experimental writer and visual artist based in San 
Diego. He is the founding  editor and publisher of The Mag 
(www.muse-apprentice-guild.com), an online  international literary review of innovative writing. 
Since developing  "Alphanumeric Painting" in 2002, he has shown in over 25 shows 
with upcoming  shows in Tokyo, Prague, Los Angeles, Arizona and Kansas City. 
Highland has  also been requested to speak about his original techniques at 
several  Universities, including Harvard.  His work is in many private and public 
 collections.  He is fast becoming one of the newest phenomenons of the  
contemporary art scene.
