Unity Art Gallery Summer 2005 Art Exhibit



June 22, 2005 -- What: The Unity Art Gallery maintained by Unity Corps, Inc. is showing a continuous online exhibition of art promoting the theme of human unity in society. Unity art is the common description for this type of stylistic display. According to Angel Tenes, Executive Director of Unity Corps, "It is no longer acceptable that exposure in the arts, mainstream media, or society in general be limited to the predominance of a few select groups. It is through the furtherance of a widespread appreciation for all people, the development of feelings for oneness amongst all humanity, that the way to peace on this planet can be achieved." He continues, "In order to develop this type of worldwide consciousness, I know of no other means more powerful than the arts to bring about this humanitarian dream." As such, to foster an acceptance for cultural diversity on a national and worldwide scale, Unity Corps' selection of artists are drawn from various backgrounds (i.e., ethnic, religious/spiritual, and sexual orientations) to represent the great diversity of cultures and subcultures prevalent in a modern society.

When: The Summer 2005 exhibition of artists will be featured in the Unity Art Gallery from June 21 to Sept. 23, 2005.
