Who would rely on a Pear bird or a pear of Birds?
And in Bak’s favorite blue. Luscious and mysterious.
The reminder of the flight from the Ghetto Vilna.
The nearly impossible fantasy of flight and escape. Somehow it worked for the artist.
Yet the memory of the dream of escaping remains ever present for him at 88.
Is there a dependable way to trust that we can escape our fate?
Free will is given and all is foreknown.
