The Technicolor Truth: Revolutionary Beauty Opening Night
Art has always spoken. Sometimes in whispers, sometimes in shouts - but always with truth. How an artist chooses to use that voice determines what the eyes and soul - hear. Nina Simone once said, “An artist’s duty, as far as I’m concerned, is to reflect the times.” So we must ask - what times are these? Are they times of love? Of war? Of peace? Of hope?
The Technicolor Truth: Revolutionary Beauty gathers 18 artists who answer that question not with silence, but with pigment, with love, with compassion.
Their work is not decoration, it is declaration. In an age that demands more than reflection, it demands transformation, this exhibit stands as a portal. Enter and witness how art can become revolution, how beauty can become truth, and how truth can become freedom.
