BARBARA YOSHIDA: MEGALITHS BY MOONLIGHT
APRIL 2 – 25, 2015

OPENING RECEPTION WITH THE ARTIST: THURSDAY, APRIL 2, 6-8PM
ARTIST TALK & BOOK SIGNING: SATURDAY, APRIL 11, 4PM

The standing, megalithic stones that populate our Earth have attracted people from the Stone Age to the present. While we do not know who constructed the stones or why, many believe they played an integral role in the religious and spiritual life of early humans. More people every year are interested in megalithic monuments, but most are only aware of Stonehenge, perhaps the world’s most famous example of a prehistoric monument. They have no idea how many thousands of ritual stones pre-date Stonehenge by centuries, how many countries have these stones, and how much the configurations vary from one country to another.
