Fingerprint Art for Joshua Bell

Prior to their Saugatuck Congregational Church concert tonight, Beechwood Arts co-founder Frederic Chiu presented his friend, violinist Joshua Bell, with a fingerprint artwork of his fingerprint by artist Sandy Garnett. Over the past 25 years, Garnett has collected thousands of fingerprints from which he creates art objects in a continuing series that explores contemporary identity. Chiu obtained Bell’s fingerprint some time ago on a pretext and Garnett incorporated it into Chiu’s gift. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) WestportNow.com photo
