“Elephant
House or, the Home of Edward Gorey: Photographs by Kevin
McDermott/Books by Edward Gorey,” runs Tuesday, August 4,
through Sunday, November 8, at the Wimberly Library on Florida
Atlantic University’s Boca Raton campus. This photography
exhibition by Kevin McDermott of Gorey's Cape Cod home brings one
into the bizarre world of the enigmatic artist who relished his
privacy and generally preferred the company of his cats to that
of his two-legged acquaintances. The exhibition, sponsored by the
Arthur and Mata Jaffe Center for Book Arts, also features some of
Gorey’s books and documents. The exhibition can be viewed
during library hours, which can be found at
www.library.fau.edu/geninfo/hours.htm?boca
or by calling 561- 297-3770. Contact John Cutrone, programs
coordinator, at 561-297- 0455 or
