Coming soon: ONWARD&UPWARD – Art in The Garden of Life

“We must cultivate our garden”, Voltaire wrote at the end of his novel Candide. In other words, let’s do what is in our power to bring change and improvement to the world by starting close to ourselves. In line with this, you could say that, in order to grow ‘onward’ and ‘upward’, we need art that brings us close to ourselves.
