We have a new recording secretary, Linda o'Connor. My apologies to
Linda for the misprint in the previous issue of the newsletter, but her
contact info is now correct. Our former secretary, Elizabeth Kern, had
to resign because of serious family issues, and we thank her for the
work she did so well. We wish her family well and hope her issues are
resolved in the near future. Thank you Linda for stepping up and
assuming the work of recording secretary.

Art and Treasures of Paris
Christian Quintin
Berger Center
May 9th,
10 am refreshments, 10:30 presentation
This exiting presentation will address the unusual and lesser known art
and treasuresfound in the center of Paris near the Seine river
including those of the Cluny Museum of the Middle Ages, the Carnavalet
Museum and its history of Paris, the Museum of the Army near Napoleon's
tomb, and a fun tour of its lesser known churches, gardens and other
curiosities rarely seen by visitors of this ancient city.
Biography Christian Quintin
I was born in the town of Saint Brieuc, on the northern coast of
Brittany, France. I studied at the Beaux Arts Academy in Paris
before moving to San Francisco in 1981. I create oils and pastel
paintings as well as pen and ink and graphite drawings,
alternating between mediums; as in music each piece calls for its own
instrument. My art addresses consciousness, what I see
or feel, and has been exhibited in many solo and international group
shows. I was represented by the famed Vorpal Gallery in
San Francisco and New York, which gave its first U.S. show to M.C.
Escher. I was also the recipient of numerous public
commissions and was represented by the Lorin Gallery in Los Angeles and
Paris.
