Join Madison Gallery for the opening reception of "LOVE LETTER | CARTA DE AMOR," a new solo exhibition by internationally acclaimed artist RETNA, on Saturday, September 20, 2025. The artist will be in attendance. Widely recognized for his iconic hieroglyphic script, large-scale public works, and influential presence in both the contemporary art world and street culture, RETNA now turns his focus inward—offering a rare and personal meditation on love, loss, and healing. In "CARTA DE AMOR," the artist explores the many forms of love and the redemptive power of connection. The exhibition will feature new large-scale canvases, mixed-media works, and site-specific installations that reflect RETNA's more authentic shift in artistic intention and tone. The exhibition runs from September 3 – October 11, 2025. RSVP by calling 858-523-9155 or emailing info@madisongalleries.com. Madison Gallery on Facebook / Instagram

"The Servant of Two Masters" is a laugh-a-minute screwball comedy. Based on the original commedia dell'arte play, AJ Knox and Samantha Ginn have adapted the production for new audiences, inspired by comedy classics like "Airplane!", "The Marx Brothers" and "Monty Python." When the trickster Truffaldino signs on to serve two masters in the hope of double wages and double dinners, chaos and hilarity ensue.
