GALLERIES

Last year, when I would write these listings, I kept pushing people to go see the exhibit of Goya's prints which was presented last year at the Museum of Fine Arts. Well, I'm going to sound like last year all over again here, because the Boston campus of UMass is exhibiting, in their Harbor Gallery, a selection of prints from Goya's series The Disasters of War. In this series, Goya depicts some of the most brutal and horrific war scenes imaginable, and succeeds in producing an extremely eloquent anti-war statement, one of the strongest I've ever seen. Through Nov. 7. Please go--you've never seen anything like these prints.

In a lighter vein...Emerson College is exhibiting something called "The Turbeville Collection of Original Cartoon Art" at the First and Second Church in Boston, corner of Berkeley and Marlborough Streets. Through Nov. 26.

There's a special exhibit on Jane Austen at the Morgan Library in New York, if you're heading down there for the weekend. I almost was, but I have these two hourlies next week you see.

I also am in no way related to the Garret Galleries which evidently just opened in Wayland.
