55] – Just World Educational is working to help a build a
better-informed US public (and a better-informed incoming Congress) by hosting
an exhibition of the work of the talented, Ramallah-based cartoonist Mohammad
Sabaaneh through Sat., Dec. 15. Visit https://www.thejerusalemfund.org/21159/november-cartoons. Mohammad's
art-- long known for its biting wit and sharp witness-- is now also becoming
recognized for its powerful artistic value. In the artist's statement he
composed to accompany the show, Mohammad wrote: I ask how I can share my world,
as an artist and a Palestinian, with the rest of the world’s people? Surely, by
art! I refuse to keep art only for the elite, in museums or exhibitions. Art
should elevate the people’s awareness and the artist should carve the dark
world to create beauty—like linocut. Call 202-338-1958 or email dpainter@thejerusalemfund.org.
