Betty LaDuke, an Artist’s Journey
As part of the 10-year anniversary celebration of the Institute of the African Child, part of Ohio University’s Center for International Studies, artist Betty LaDuke will exhibit her paintings at Alden Library, Fine Arts gallery space, from March 3rd through April 20, 2009.
“An upbeat, contemporary view of African life emerges in LaDuke’s paintings, drawings and etchings. Inspired by ten years of travel in Africa, her images reflect war zone life and camps for internally displaced people. The exhibit depicts survival conditions in the camps, as well as people’s spirit of community, their resilience and their dreams of returning home.”
