Family tree yields three artists for group show

Three generations have pooled their artistic abilities to present the group exhibit “It’s All Relative,” at the La Jolla Art Association Gallery, 8100 Paseo del Ocaso in La Jolla Shores, with a public reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Nov. 19.

The exhibit is open now through Nov. 21, and is free to view during the gallery’s hours of operation, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

Career rocket engineer Edward Hujsak, now age 85, is still active in his profession, lives in La Jolla, has written seven books, and has extended his talents into sculpture and furniture design. His whimsical works include “Explosion in a Lollipop Factory,” and “Failed DNA Model.”

His work is on display along with that of his niece, Lee Lisevitz, a part-time San Diegan, who has pioneered a new art form, shown in this exhibit, that involves a fusion of glass and canvas, backlit for luminosity.

Her daughter, Elizabeth Zaikowski of San Diego, has made her art specialty mandalas  — concentric diagrams that have spiritual and ritual significance in both Buddhism and Hinduism. Zaikowski’s works have been displayed in numerous exhibits and she teaches public art at Disneyland, Sea World, and other venues. For more details, call the art association at (858) 459-1196.

    Hats off to the members of the City of Del Mar’s Finance Committee Pension Sub-Committee for the 18-plus months they spent learning the ins and outs of the City’s $23,000,000-plus pension obligation. They really have a well-researched understanding of the issues and the politics and the challenges of the City’s pension liability, and as we approach the next […]
  • Time to forget or time to remember? May 18, 2013
    Jordan Rosenfeld, in his letter of May 9, said it’s time to stop the comparisons with Hitler and Nazi Germany, such as made by Jim Donovan (me) and Tom Pickwell in making their (separately submitted) cases against Big Brother in America and his ever bigger and bolder encroachments upon the liberty fought for by our inspired founders and guaranteed by the Con […]
