Philip Schurman has been a stone sculptor for over 35 years, receiving a BFA from Pomona College. He has shown his work throughout the Bay Area and has sold his work to private collectors.His work is primarily abstract figurative, expressing human interaction and emotion. He works with many different

varieties of stone including alabaster, serpentine, soapstone and marble from all over the world.Most of his work is done with hand tools. Philip often looks at the rough stone to suggest a form that will be released from within.He loves stone’s tactile quality, its richness and variations

 in color and texture that comes to life in its final stages

 in the creation of form.




Philip Schurman Ceramics ongoing show at 



the Georgi Gallery.

			Valerie  Sobel

opens a window on a fantasy world inhabited by dreamlike creatures, plants and other living organisms whose


portraits lend themselves to closer examination, inviting you to step into, and, if if  you are willing to, lose


yourself in, the fanciful, eerie, and often contemplative microcosms of her personal world.


Come take a stroll into that world at Giorgi Gallery on Saturday, March 10  5-9pm


Show runs  Mar 10 thru April 1

 Joint Album Release Concert:  Jessie Turner and Emily Bezar    


Sunday, December 4th    7pm – 10pm


The Giorgi Gallery 2911 Claremont Ave., Berkeley


Tickets:  $12 at the door   Reservations are recommended


please contact:  demivox@emilybezar.com


Oakland singer-songwriters Jessie Turner and Emily Bezar present an evening of jazz, original songs and international music in celebration of the release of their new albums, Turner’s “Jazz International”, and Bezar’s “Fooled By Yesterday”.

JESSIE TURNER


Singer and songwriter Jessie Turner, best-known for her original compositions, follows the lead taken in her last CD in which she began her affair with international music.  In this, her first CD primarily of covers, she takes us on a romantic journey through the Mexican Corrido, French Cabaret, Bossa, American Jazz, and other varied selections.  This seemingly disparate collection of songs is firmly melded together by Turner’s supple vocals — pristine in the classical pieces, subtle and smoky in the jazz ballads, and many shades between and beyond.

EMILY BEZAR


Emily Bezar is an alchemist, a truly unique singer and composer who draws freely from classical, jazz, rock, pop and electronic music to create a sound world all her own. Her soaring voice and keyboard-centric arrangements have earned her comparisons to Kate Bush and Tori Amos as well as to jazz icon Keith Jarrett and rock legend Frank Zappa.  Since 1993 she has released 5 albums of original music on her own label, DemiVox Records. Her new album ”Fooled By Yesterday” is her first recording to include keyboard improvisations and interpretations of classical and jazz standards.


“Haunting art-rock…beautifully synthesizes elements of new music, jazz and pop.” – Downbeat
