The Gallery.

For thirty years the canvases leaned in the corner, mostly unwitnessed — carried through a twelve-year degree, a marriage, four children, and full-time nursing. This is where they come out of the corner. The paintings of Enrique (Kiké) Crosby — the sea as a nervous system feels it, the crowded table of creation, the door standing open in the sky. Not to be sold first — to be seen first. Witness is the older debt. And the name in the parentheses is the oldest debt of all — the one his family gave him, reclaimed.
