James Kalm sneaks in and captures a brief preview of the installation of Brian Belott's "Swirly Music".  With a list of sources that includes 1960s cartoons, hippy graphics, outsider and children's art, Belott has developed a unique method of reverse glass painting that seems to capture the essence of childhood imagery, and trapped it n crystal.  The resulting works raise apparent kitsch to decorative heights without forgoing its playful whimsy.  All this is displayed with a soundtrack of lushly orchestrated "easy listening" music.
