Works on Paper at Rosewood Art Center

I strongly favorable review of the ImageOhio 9 exhibition appeared in yesterday's (Sunday) Columbus Dispatch. Thank you Diana for posting this to Facebook. I believe it marks the first time that I have been mentioned in a review of a group exhibition. Does this go into my publication section of my CV?
