The ArtObjectGallery announces the opening of a thought provoking new exhibit featuring Los Gatos artist Luis Gutierrez's most recent Wounded Warrior series of paintings titled "PTSD" (post traumatic stress disorder disorder). These powerful portraits reveal Luis's sense of what lies beneath the surface of those who are ordered into the hell that is war. Luis channels his frustration at the largely unseen, but heartbreaking real costs of war into expressive brush strokes and richly textured surfaces of these inner profiles.

Also on view is work by photographers Terri Garland and Deborah Mills Thackrey.

Reception for the artists on Friday, September 26 from 7:00 to 9:00 P.M.
Exhibit on view thru November 12, 2008
