“THIS EXHIBITION FOCUSES ON HOW OUR PRESENT TIME IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES HAS BECOME A CRISIS OF CONTENTION DIVIDING OUR COUNTRY. THE FAMILIAR HAS BECOME UNFAMILIAR. HATE DOMINATES LIFE AS WE ARE INUNDATED WITH MEDIA REPORTS THAT BRING THIS INTO CONSCIOUSNESS ON A DAILY BASIS. THE ARTNAUTS SEEK TO CREATE IMAGES THAT COUNTER THE PRESENT ZEITGEIST IN HOPES OF HEALING OUR SOCIETY WITH ALTERNATIVE VISIONS.” DR. GEORGE RIVERA
