This week\u2019s theme at<\/span> the FIVE Spot is <\/span>THE TWO FACES OF GEMINI<\/b>,<\/span> as we present five works of art connected by the dual nature of this astrological sign of late May and the month of June. The Latin term for “twins,” Gemini has perhaps become the most popular sign of the zodiac for its globally recognized twoness, its mirrored imagery. As a constellation, under the tropical zodiac,<\/span> the sun crosses Gemini roughly between May 21 and June 21 each year.<\/span><\/p>\n

These five works of art celebrate the inherent duality that is Gemini. They include<\/span> Twins<\/span><\/i> by Fred Jones; <\/span>Faces For Two Worlds<\/span><\/i> by Elizabeth Catlett;<\/span> Twins <\/span><\/i>by Khalif Thompson; <\/span>Untitled male #1<\/span><\/i> by Paul Goodnight; and<\/span> Hear My Cry<\/span><\/i> by Ulysses Marshall.<\/span><\/p>\n
