Mad, humorous, elaborate, grotesque, glamorous and unexpected, Cave's work explores issues of ceremony, ritual, myth and identity through a layering of concepts.

In fact, Elton John affectionately refers to him as "the greatest songwriter on the planet." The son of folk singers Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle and brother of Martha Wainwright, Rufus has carved out his own singular sound in the worlds of rock, opera, theater, dance and film.

Wainwright has released seven albums, most recently a live recording from his Release the Stars tour titled Milwaukee at Last!!!. His previous album, a celebrated tribute to the legendary actress and singer Judy Garland titled Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall, was nominated for a Grammy Award. Wainwright also received JUNO Awards for "Best Alternative Album" in 1999 and 2002.

Wainwright's acclaimed first opera, Prima Donna, premiered at the Manchester International Festival in July 2009 and will make its North American debut in Toronto at the Luminato Festival in 2010. He also composed a musical adaptation of Shakespeare Sonnets with noted director Robert Wilson at the Berliner Ensemble, which premiered in April 2009 and continues to play to sold-out houses.

In addition to his musical pursuits, Wainwright has acted in several films, including The Aviator (2004), directed by Martin Scorsese.

Duley-Jones Gallery is pleased to feature the work of Walker Moore throughout the month of November.

Walker Moore is a collaborative effort between the husband and wife team of John Walker and Roxanne Moore. They work together on paintings (though not always at the same time) to create their alluring, beautifully serene work of doorways, stairs, and passageways. Moore explains: The result is a third style that doesnt look like either of our individual works. Using the time-tested medium of caseina water-based medium which uses milk protein as a binderthe paintings evoke a sense of mystery and curiosity.

Photos, visuals and additional information available upon request.
