A Juried Exhibition ~ September 21 – December 21, 2018
“Artists For World Peace 2018” was a juried online exhibition presented by The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS, curated by Renée Phillips, in celebration of International Peace Day, September 21, 2018. The exhibition featured more than 60 artists through December 21, 2018.
For this exhibition we asked artists worldwide to submit one work of art that communicates the spirit of world peace and their statement or a famous quotation.
The Healing Power of ART & ARTISTS, an initiative of Manhattan Arts International, is a growing global community of artists, advocates, and writers dedicated to raising awareness about how ART serves as a positive catalyst for enhancing the well-being of individuals, society and the environment.

Deborah Milton
I wish I were a gargantuan version of me, so I could swoop the planet onto my lap and croon, “There there, it’s gonna be all right.” From my point of view as Earth’s daughter, all I want to do is protect her from further harm. May we all remember that love sometimes requires sacrifice. Do we love life enough? deborahmiltonartist.com
Lisa Botto Lee
Imagine a country where ideas are encouraged, values embraced and diversity celebrated. Imagine a lady in a harbor holding the torch of freedom illuminating the dark and huddled masses yearning to breathe free. Imagine a term that sums up the human experience “E Pluribus Unum”… from many one. Imagine an ideal called America rather than the geography that defines her borders. Imagine. lisabottolee.com

Buddha wrote, “Peace comes from within”. Balance the inner body, according to the rainbow coloured symbols and beliefs of the Chakra, and mankind’s inner self finds peace, acceptance, and understanding. Only by finding inner peace can one release the symbolic butterfly of metamorphosis that will go forth and affect change. Heal yourself then, bring that peace to the world. kathrynrutherford.com

“The task of art is enormous… Art should cause violence to be set aside. And it is only art that can accomplish this.” ~ Leo Tolstoy morantart.com
Ric Horner
We are wise and we are strong. We are not weak, we are meek. We are thinkers and tinkerers. We are problem solvers and hard workers. We are industrious and hopeful. We are grateful for our blessings. We cherish our home on earth. We long for world peace. We believe in effect from cause. We love without pause. fineartcenter.tv
