BROOKLYN, NY — NYC Health + Hospitals/South Brooklyn Health, in partnership with Be Proud Inc., recently hosted the "God Bless America" art exhibition, featuring 19 original works created in celebration of the United States' 250th anniversary.
The exhibition features the work of local Russian speaking-artists expressing how they have been inspired by the freedom, hope, and community of the American Dream.
Artists were invited to express their individual visions of America, with pieces exploring themes of freedom, community, creativity and the pursuit of the American Dream.
Works featured in the exhibition include patriotic imagery such as tall ships and soaring eagles, as well as family portraits, historic landmarks and events, military service and interpretations of the immigrant experience.
"We are proud to exhibit the work of these Brooklyn artists from Be Proud Inc,'s God Bless America art competition at South Brooklyn Health," CEO of NYC Health + Hospitals/South Brooklyn Health Manjinder Kaur, said. "These works transform our spaces, bring joy to our visitors, and foster healing for our patients and their families."
The exhibition is open to patients, visitors, staff and members of the Brooklyn community. It will remain on view through the end of the year in the first gallery of the second-floor visitor walkway.
