Beyond Bridges
April 8, 2018 - May 13, 2018
FreeA peacebuilding interfaith contemporary art exhibition. Features the work of 21 Arab, Persian and Jewish artists from 11 countries and from the three primary monotheistic faith backgrounds: Islam, Christianity and Judaism.
Through their creativity, the artists urge us to focus on what we have in common in our creeds and cultures as the foundation for the future of our world. At a time when stereotypes and media hype are increasing an ever-widening divide between the Middle East and West, Beyond Bridges serves as an encounter point, facilitating greater understanding, and encouraging new relationships to be made across religions and cultures.
Each artist has submitted one original work on canvas, paper or wood focused on what bridge us to each other. Participating artists include women and men, from premier contemporary artists to emerging younger artists, and artists that use a variety of artistic mediums.
