Sra. Gaston, YOU ROCK!!!!!

Parents, you rock for registering your scholars to party with their fellow classmates and the best Art teacher, Sra. Gaston. 

Both parties were exciting and filled with outstanding creativity!  The collage above consists of art created by our PEWSI scholars who shared their art work.     

The party would not have been a success without the guidance and skill of our very own, Sra. Gaston.  Thank you so much Sra. Gaston for always being such a special person to our scholars.  We appreciate you!! 

Parents continue to encourage your scholars to enjoy their gift of creatively painting!!!  Happy Summer!  Stay Safe!!!

ANIMA MUNDI 2022 – CONSCIOUSNESS
ITSLIQUID International Art Fair
Venice | May 12/13 – June 03, 2022
Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello Palazzo Bembo – Venice Grand Canal ITSLIQUID Group

The festival focuses on the concept of ANIMA MUNDI, which according to several historical cultures, religions and philosophical systems, is an intrinsic connection between all living entities on the planet, which relates to the world in a similar way as the human soul is connected to the human body

ANIMA MUNDI is the invisible energy behind all the natural and artificial elements that allows the planet to live. Thanks to the hidden connections of ANIMA MUNDI, all the ecosystems of the Earth, before and after the appearance of mankind, found their equilibrium, their ways to live and to develop themselves, to transform and to evolve. All the beings of the planet, plants, minerals, animals are permeated by a secret force that has always stimulated human thought and research.

VENICE INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2021 April 12/13 – May 02, 2021

Venice International Art Fair 2021 analyzes the relationship between body and space, and the hybridization between identities and cultural/physical/social/urban  settings in contemporary time, through two main sections  

LIQUID ROOMS analyzes the hidden parts of our identities, through an immersive experience inside the fascinating universe of the complex labyrinths of our consciousness. The human body is a changing system that connects us with other bodies and spaces to perceive the surrounding reality; a strong communication system with its own language and infinite ways of expression.           

FUTURE LANDSCAPES are abstract, infinite and conceptual, associated with a sense of freedom and infinite extension. Primarily experienced with the mind, spaces redefining their limits and borders, transforming surfaces in open flow of pure ideas. This section focuses on the concept of the borders and the structures between body, mind and soulthe human identity and the city, the space and the ground.

What Is Hanukkah? International Art Exhibition is open.  Sponsored by Dr. Sandra Epps.  Beautiful art is the best way to draw attention to today’s threat of polarization and cultural imperialism still happening today, resulting in the death and destruction of human culture. 
We celebrate this triumphant moment in Jewish history.  
The show runs from December 10, through January 31, 2021.  

 

La Memoria alimenta el imaginario colectivo, las personas mueren, los lugares desaparecen,
las vidas se sepultan u olvidan. Los mitos y símbolos permanecen en la mente colectiva.

Art in the Time of Coronavirus & Social Distancing 

 How has the current crisis affected the production & consumption of fine art?

Circle Foundation

November 2020

Group Exhibit curated by Myrina Tunberg Georgiou



In this group exhibit, we look at work from artists around the world which was recently created and was inspired by or deals with the current pandemic. This novel situation has undoubtedly impacted our political and economical lives as citizens and most importantly it has imposed new norms on our social life, daily habits, the way we connect with each other as well as the way we connect to our communities. From the personal to the political the 2020 pandemic has affected every aspect of our lives.

But what about art? How has the production of art been affected by recent restrictions and changes? How has the consumption of art been changed by social distancing? What is the purpose of art in processing this new normality? Can art provide refuge for makers and viewers alike? How can art shape our perspective in this rapidly changing reality?

Artists have a unique way of perceiving, visualizing and communicating and in this decisive historical moment, their visions become immensely significant in providing insight into current circumstances as well as documentation for future retrospection.

It might be too much pressure to expect from contemporary artists to be our mentors or philosophers. For me, the power of art stands in its open-endedness. Art has an influentially non-didactic way of pointing at the truth but instead of blatantly instructing, it invites. Each artwork, actively suggestive, provides space for a dialogue between itself and the viewer’s projected thoughts and intuitions, resulting in the cultivation of a personal, idiosyncratic truth.

I invite you to look at each piece in this exhibit with complete freedom of interpretation and create your personal truth that may provide solace in processing the current crisis, inspiration for surviving it as well as hope to overcome it.

La Historia se repite, Conoce el futuro mirando al Pasado 
History repeats itself, learn the future through examining the past..


Artists are indeed the creators of the future using color and light.  The visual arts can bring the message of peace and human rights to life in any community. Now more than ever, we need to help instill the values that human rights education offers to bring about an understanding of what human rights are and how vital they are in creating a safer and saner world.  

 

Your art will help achieve this understanding and we are proud to include it in our online art gallery

Gallería il Mondo ARTAVITA. Exposiciones virtuales Elena Gastón Nicolás CRECIMIENTO ESPIRITUAL 14 agosto 2020-14 diciembre 2020 Here is a rather approximate overview of my artistic journey since the 80's, through the arrangement of abstract art and the Three Ways of Spiritual Knowledge:, The Alchemical Way, The Priestly Path and the Way of the Warrior. Tapestries, Colossuses and small important things. I'm interested in exploring our mental and perceptual potential, also delving into spirituality. I shape mental maps and multi-boggling cosmogonies, portraits and custom made pictures. Above all , landscape and its inhabitants I follow lightful spiritual life. I am very concerned about the future of the planet. I was born on one of the first momets that criticism attributes to me. Wholly Elena

BODIES+CITIES SKIN Venice International Art Fair 2020. 
BODIES+CITIES SKIN is about the humankind, that wants to wear his city like a second skin without borders or limits. City's body is in constant evolution. It changes its skin and shows a renewed body. This mutation follows the direction of human being development and it is a clear and true statement of cities changing time. From borders as individual bodies and souls to boundaries of cities in which we live, each line delimitates a surface and could be the starting point to something new, undiscovered. Limits are everywhere, barriers keep us inside or outside spaces and societies. Their passing creates a crossover of identities and urban environment. The way we move, we relate to anything, to the world make us go beyond boundaries.

“It was March …2020,...The streets were empty…Closed stores,...People were no longer going out....However, SPRING DID NOT KNOW...The flowers kept blooming,…The sun shining...The swallows coming back…The sky colored pink and blue…It was March …2020,Young people studied connected.…everyone was in mandatory quarantine.…SPRING DID NOT KNOW it and the roses bloomed again.The pleasure of eating together discovered….To write leaving the imagination free, reading flying with fantasy.There were those who learned a new language.Who understood that he truly love...The importance of greeting and affection understood....The year the world seemed to stand still.… SPRING DID NOT KNOW it and the flowers gave way to the fruits.Then… we went outside…With tears in the eyes.Without masks or gloves. Hugging our neighbor.as our brother.Then… summer came.However, SPRING DID NOT KNOW. .. It was still there.NonethelessDespite the virus…Despite the fear…Despite deathSPRING DID NOT KNOWAnd taught everyoneTHE FORCE OF LIFE.”          Fragmets of a poem from Irene Vella
