Mississauga, Ontario….The Living Arts Centre is proud to
present MOSAICO, a showcase of paintings, drawings, engravings, photography
and sculpture by the Mississauga membership of Fundarte Latinoamerica. This
exhibition runs from July 1 to August 21, 2005.
Fundarte Latinoamerica is a non-profit cultural organization
dedicated to promoting the artistic development of the Latin American
community in Canada. The group was founded to make the general public aware
of the richness of the Latin American cultural heritage and to help to
integrate the Latin American community into the Canadian mainstream, thereby
enriching Canada’s cultural mosaic. Fundarte promotes the development of art
through workshops, collective exhibitions and encouraging emerging artists.
MOSAICO is a vibrant pictorial example of works that join
together the passion and inspiration of 15 local artists. These artists have
an intense desire to actively create an environment whereby fine arts can
flourish - in all its diverse artistic expressions. Their Latin American
roots, experience and vision unite the artists. Together they produce an
artistic fusion that will lead to new ideas, creating stronger bonds within
the Latin American art community.
