Dining vs. digital delirium

weiner  

"Sam and Don'' (digital print), by PAUL WEINER,  at Brickbottom Gallery,  in Somerville, Mass., in the show "Anxiety and Relief in the 21st Century,'' Sept. 7-Oct. 18.

The gallery asks how  we can turn anxiety into relief in our far-too-fast, churning, Internet-driven world.  We suppose having an unrushed dinner with the lights turned down helps. So, the gallery argues, does making art.
