Kurt Brereton's exhibition Inclinations features both some of his vibrant landscape paintings and the launch of his new book.   Inclinations is full of the play of ironic puns, innuendos, and word games, a hybrid of texts woven into a long song and film script made of poems, quotes, fragments, footnotes and artwork images. Brereton uses tapestry and embroidered knitting to stitch texts together into a new garment called a book. This collection of knots in the "fishing line" of his creative output over the last half century is a fascinating experience.
