Editorial Review

If you needed proof of the maxim that elephants never forget, look no further than Rosslyn's new Hotel Palomar. On view in a conference room on the fourth floor is a selection of paintings by elephants who have been trained to paint certain shapes and patterns. The completed canvases are both abstract and designed. Is it a gimmick? Sure, but it's also fascinating. Visitors can just wander in off the street and ask to see the show, but it's probably most worth a visit during the daily wine hour from 5 to 6 p.m. During this time, visitors can stroll into the lounge area, buy a drink and explore six or eight works than have been brought out for display. The exhibit closes Dec. 29.
