Minnie Park Art Project is thrilled to announce "Pantheon": a vibrant exhibition that celebrates the divine and religious through the innovative spirit and boundary-breaking creativity of contemporary artists. Religion is an inherent aspect of the human experience, manifesting in diverse forms and practices, shaping our lives in profound ways. Curated by Minnie Park, founder of the Minnie Park Art Project, "Pantheon"delves into the human relationship with religious expression, transcending traditional artistic norms to embrace cutting-edge styles. The exhibition will be held from April 4 to April 27, 2024, at 526 West 26th Street #211, New York, NY.
Inspired by the ancient Greek concept of the "Pantheon" as a gathering place for god sand deities, this exhibition brings together a select group of artists whose work embodies a similar sense of transcendence and boundless imagination influenced by their individual spiritual journeys. Each artist in "Pantheon" challenges the constraints of the physical world through their unique expressions of religion, redefining contemporary artistic practice and inviting viewers to explore new dimensions of the divine within art.
