presented in the Live Like a Hero Gallery

These are questions and concepts that we have grappled with at the National Liberty Museum for more than 20 years and ones we posed to a group of talented artists from across Philadelphia.

VIRTUAL EXHIBITIONS - 2020
Celebrating Values

2020 has been a challenging year !
Firstly, the COVID-19 pandemic plunged the world into an unprecedented health and economic crisis and then, weakened again by an upsurge of violence !
So, this situation led me to participate in evocative Art projects oriented towards Human Values !

GRATITUDE

"Keep HOPE Alive"

This Mixed Media painting was part of a campaign featured by Amplifierart.org to promote mental health, well being and also, to thank healthcare workers devoted to save lives and took care of each other during this health crisis.

"Keep HOPE Alive" because as Miguel de Cervantes, the famous spanish novelist said "Where there is Life, there is Hope !"
