Art Without Borders: Seven Inspiring Art Stories of Female Artists - Paperback

by Victoria Averbukh (Author)

"Art is the great connector, as proven here in the stories these seven Eastern European female artists share about their work, their immigration experiences, and their acclimation into American culture. "Victoria Averbukh, of Russian and Jewish descent, journalist by profession, knows firsthand what these women have faced, having come to the United States and raised American children while successfully keeping their Russian heritage alive. "These seven artists all work in different mediums. Their work could not be more different; however, their shared experiences create a common thread, weaving their Eastern European roots into their American lifestyles. Their work on a whole is vibrant, colorful, and passionate. Victoria has chosen a group of women whose stories are as fascinating and powerful as the work they create. She has chosen well. Each of them makes the world a brighter, more beautiful place, and for that, we all must stand up and applaud!" Nina Seigenfeld Velazquez, visual artist and curator, New York
