Arthur Miller Thinks - Expressionist Figurative Painting of Arthur Miller
By Bernard Aptekar
Located in New York, NY
Bernard Aptekar's Arthur Miller Thinks is a large 65.5 x 53.5 inches expressionist figurative oil painting. It portrays American playwright Arthur Miller. The main colors are blue, green, and pink. The surrealistic and expressionistic language used to covey the message, as well as the use of a palette with low contrast colors, has its roots in the work of Mexican muralist Diego Rivera, who Apterkar met at age of 11. The outcome is an imagery of an extraordinary visual impact and absolutely unique to Aptekar's own creative process. Arthur Miller, the author of the play "Death of a Salesman...

The Coffee Break
By Bernard Aptekar
Located in New York, NY
As art historian and writer Suzanne Ramljak wrote "the ambivalent relationship between humanity and machinery has informed Aptekar's art from the start and remains a central theme in his work. Like many of the issues Aptekar addresses, technology is not without contradiction." The use of clear contours and colors, is certainly not oblivious of Fernand Leger latest work and what he called "the law of contrast". At the same time, the political and social commentary that are a constant inherent component of Aptekar's work has it's roots in the work of Mexican muralist Diego Rivera, who Apterkar met at age of 11. The outcome is an imagery of an extraordinary visual impact and absolutely unique to Aptekar's own creative process. This work "Coffee Break...

Esosa
Located in Ibadan, Oyo
Esosa, which means "gift of God," is not only a name but a powerful reminder of the potential within every girl. As she lays down with a book she epitomizes the essence of her name - a vessel of knowledge, waiting to be filled with wisdom and understanding. This simple yet profound act symbolizes her commitment to continuous learning and her unwavering belief in the power of education. In many parts of the world, girls have historically been denied access to education, limiting their opportunities and potential. But Esosa's unwavering dedication is changing that narrative, one page at a time. She firmly believes that empowering girls through education not only benefits them but also enriches their families, communities, and societies at large. Esosa's journey towards championing girl child education began with her own experiences and challenges. Growing up in a society where traditional gender roles often hindered girls' access to education, she encountered numerous obstacles. However, with the support of her family, particularly her parents, who recognized the importance of education for all, Esosa pursued her dreams relentlessly. Through her educational journey, Esosa witnessed the transformative power of knowledge. Education broadened her perspective, nurtured critical thinking, and instilled in her a sense of purpose. She became acutely aware of the vast potential locked within every girl and the boundless possibilities that education can unlock. With an unyielding determination, Esosa embarked on a mission to inspire and empower girls around her. She started organizing educational workshops and mentorship programs, encouraging girls to pursue their dreams fearlessly. Through her efforts, she advocated for equal educational opportunities, fighting against the prevailing gender biases and societal norms. Esosa's impact extended beyond her immediate surroundings. She utilized technology and social media to reach out to a broader audience, spreading her message of girl child education far and wide. Her story, her beliefs, and her passion resonated with many, attracting like-minded individuals and organizations that joined hands to support her cause. As she continues to lay down with her book, Esosa sets an example for girls everywhere - an example of resilience, empowerment, and the courage to defy limitations. She emphasizes that knowledge is not a privilege but a right that should be accessible to all, irrespective of gender or social background. In her vision for a better world, every girl receives quality education, unlocking their potential to become change-makers, leaders, and contributors to society. Esosa envisions a world where girls are empowered to break barriers, shatter glass ceilings, and rewrite the narrative for future generations. To all those who come across her story, Esosa's message is clear: investing in girl child education is an investment in a brighter and more equitable future. It is a journey that transforms lives, breaks cycles of poverty, and builds thriving communities. So, let us all join hands with Esosa and countless other advocates for girl child education. Together, we can create a world where every girl receives the gift of education, embraces her potential, and fulfills her dreams. Let us believe wholeheartedly in the power of education and seek knowledge to shape a better tomorrow - a tomorrow where every girl is an Esosa, a true gift of God.
