surprise and an honor
This exhibit is now past. I had posted about it when it was on, but in redesigning my blog page, I lost track of time - weeks!
The link below takes you to the virtual exhibit of each painting in this international exhibition - of the artists who were not able to send their paintings to the gallery. There are many works and all are astounding in terms of the excellence in execution and power of emotion impact.
The Invisible Costs of War
I am honored to be among the artists in this show, and I was able to send my painting to Chicago, crated. (what an ordeal).
The Ukrainian artists embody the truth of the horror, of course. I’ve gone to each of their websites. Several non-Ukrainians are also in the exhibit. I want to meet all these artists, I want to know their stories. There is a closing event scheduled and I’d love to go, but so far, I think I am stuck at home.
Even though I have my differences with the New York Times (because who really lives the lives they cater to?), I occasionally read the Sunday edition. I think this article is worth reading and very relevant to this ARC Gallery show. In fact, I’m a little curious why The NYTimes didn’t reference “The Invisible Costs of War”.
