MICHIGAN---The Ann Arbor Senior Center’s “Of Many Faiths” presents a dozen accomplished artworks by husband and wife duo Frederick and Suzanne Beutler. The diffused religiosity of these photographic and oil on canvas works proves to be the exhibit's greatest asset. As the Senior Center’s Francesca Cassara tells us in her introduction to the show, “Both artists communicate the differing forms taken by various religions in their devotions, from pre-Columbian practice through Buddhism and the Abrahamic faiths. Sue’s oil paintings explore that impulse through many religions, while Fred’s photography both portrays and comments on the way people worship.”[link]
