Outer Expressions of Inner Peace
Click image to enlarge:
Can Art Create World Peace?
“Outer Expressions of Inner Peace”, Multimedia Art Exhibit Sponsored by PeaceArt Nevada County.
PeaceArt Exhibit:
Creating World Peace, one image at a time.
When: April 14-19
Where: Center for the Arts
314 West Main Street
Grass Valley, CA 94945
Artist’s Reception: April 19th 2:00 - 4:00 PM
Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Saturday: 12 – 5PM
Sunday: 2 – 4PM
War can be forced upon us, yet peace must begin within. In fact, world peace will only occur once we find inner peace. Artists, professional and amateur, young and old, responded to an invitation to express their inner experience of peace, each artist created a piece of art that expresses their personal experience of peace.
Artists’ Statement:
Vaclav Havel said, “If we are to change our world view, images have to change.” We agree, our goal, as artists, is to find our inner place of peace, then create and share the images it inspires. Our exhibit includes fine arts, photography, collage, crafts, poetry, and sculpture. PeaceArts goal is to awaken the awareness of our inner potential for peace, and to inspire the artist within each of our hearts. When there is peace within the heart of the individual, there will be peace in the family. When there is peace in the family the community will be peaceful, and peaceful communities are the key to national and global peace.
