  • Spirit AnimalPaintings & Prints by John Hillmer

    Artist John Hillmer returns to the lovely Bordello Galeria courtyard with an ever-evolving mix of paintings and prints. This show’s called Spirit Animal since so many colorful creatures, familiar and fictional, make appearances.

    In these pieces of art you may find fish, birds, buddhas, bulls, gulls, goats, grackles, cats, dogs, jackrabbits, vermillion flycatchers, pelicans, roosters, cardinals, iguanas, mermaids, samba players, jazz and blues masters, spiritual seekers, high top sneakers, guitars, ouds, upright basses, mystical places, and saxophones. All soul symbols, says Hillmer, in a mix he calls Music, Myth, Madness.

    Hillmer’s work, in the form of large stage murals, has accompanied many artists including Ray Charles, Keb’ Mo’, Taj Mahal, and Maya Angelou. His design and illustration work has helped celebrate more than 50 music, literary, and community events throughout North America. He also worked for six years as teacher and Publications Director at the American School of Guadalajara.

    These pieces arrive in SMA peacefully and ask, in silence, for nothing short of a permanent global ceasefire and a truth-based spiritual transformation. As Hillmer’s mom used to say, “you can always ask”.

    And so we ask you and your own spirit animals to join us in the courtyard this weekend.

    Sat., March 9 & Sun., March 10 —11 am – 6 pm
