This is a blockbuster moment at Nepenthe Gallery as we welcome VICTOR EKPUK to share his artworks and his vast experiences. Victor is an internationally renowned artist who lives about one mile and a half from Nepenthe and whose studio is in Washington, D.C. He is celebrated for his diverse portfolio that spans paintings, drawings, sculptures, illustrations and monumental public art. Drawing inspiration from *Nsibidi”—-an indigenous ideographic script of southeastern Nigeria, his art functions as a visual language that bridges the gap between historical tradition and modern abstraction. Each piece is as fantastic as the next and we are overjoyed to partner with this multimedia artist whose works and career are destined to become legendary.

Battle Brief - Remembering the Revolution at Arlington National Cemetery: A Panel Discussion

Soldiers are warriors both on and off the battlefield.
Many Soldiers have applied the same dedication, teamwork, and patriotism required to accomplish their mission to athletic competition. Since 1948, over 400 Soldiers have represented the United States at the Olympics. One hundred Soldiers have earned medals in a variety of sports, including boxing, wrestling, pentathlon, and bobsled. Before official record-keeping, many American Olympians enlisted in the Army during World War II to protect and defend the United States. Today, this tradition of athletic accomplishment continues in the Army’s World Class Athlete Program, which trains Soldiers to perform at the highest level in their sports.
In this History Talk, learn more about the commitments, sacrifices, and accomplishments of these Soldier Olympians.
