BEAUTY Will Save the World!

I cannot tell you how over-the-top excited I am to have celebrated artist Erik Koeppel, a champion of The Hudson River School philosophy, join For Love & Art in our quest to bring Beauty, Joy, and much Love to senior living communities!
I encourage you to visit his website and read his entire Artist Statement. Be inspired!
The importance of BEAUTY is vital for well-being, and pairing it with ENGAGEMENT provides a "Slice of Heaven."
I believe he and other kindred spirits will be known collectively as a School; e.g., "The Post-Modernists," similar to "The Pre-Raphaelites." And a renaissance will occur, proving Dostoyevsky right, "BEAUTY will save the World!"
Shown includes his introduction slide and two of his works, which are frequently voted "Best in Shows" in recent therapeutic art sessions.
