It's said that "An apple a day keeps the doctor away," and New York artist Thomas Woodruff presents a colorful reminder with his "Apple Canon" on view at The Contemporary Museum. Bite into art
The work comprises 365 "portraits" of apples on 9-by-8-inch canvases, shown whole, sliced, bitten, carved, stacked, impaled with toothpicks or invaded by worms.
In music, a canon is is a composition in which the melody is repeated by voices of different pitches, overlapping and harmonizing, elaborating a theme. For Woodruff, the apples also served as talismans meant to ward off illness, including AIDS.
The show continues at the museum, 2411 Makiki Heights Drive, through March 26. Also on view are "Seeing is Believing," works by Vik Muniz, and "Disturbing Desire: Video Works by Ximena Cuervas, Diane Nerwen and Shelly Silver."
Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, and noon to 4 p.m. Sundays. Call 523-3447.
