Letters to the Editor Dear artscope magazine, Just a quick note to tell you how much the Ulman family appreciated Franklin W. Liu’s wonderful article about Mike Ulman in your May/June 2008 issue. He is still getting calls from friends who read the magazine and discovered the story. Thank you for your insightful understanding of how Mike’s art is integral to his passion for motors and speed. Marty Ulman Dear artscope magazine Your magazine is distributed at the Sharon Arts Center/Gallery in Peterborough, New Hampshire, and that’s where I pick up my copy, and have remained a huge fan. I noticed in a recent issue that you featured an article on the Dublin Arts Colony, and thought you may like to mention our Summer Music Festival that runs from July 9 to August 17. This year we have an amazing and innovative repertoire. We rattle the cage of conventional thinking when it comes to chamber music, and more and more Bostonians attend our concerts every year. Cynthia A. Geary Development Director Monadnock Music Dear artscope magazine Thank you for the many insightful articles, elegant layout, fine color separations and vitality of the whole magazine. With our triple exhibition of “Hiroshima,” “Tibet and China” and “The Peace Mask Project,” our Central Asian Cinema series, and upcoming Samurai-Kaiju and Mongolian Festivals, the Asian Cultural Center of Vermont and C.X. Silver Gallery of Brattleboro are very pleased to collaborate with your magazine. We are connecting people through the arts and cultures of all Asia and you are connecting people through the incredible creativity and insight of the arts scene. We appreciate your outstanding customer service. Adam Silver, Co-Director, C.X. Silver Gallery Executive Director, Asian Cultural Center of Vermont Dear artscope magazine Thank you so much for writing about Ron Rosenstock’s “Fire & Ice” show in the artscope e-mail blast. I appreciate the visibility that this placement has provided the show and our gallery. Isa Leshko, Marketing Director Panopticon Gallery, Boston Read the entire article in our magazine pages...
