I am honored to be the featured artist in the exhibit “Absurdity In Dada We Trust” at The Art Center Highland Park, Illinois, June 23-August 5, 2023.
In anticipation of the exhibit, I just created a video to accompany my piece “Ending Gun Violence- It’s About Time-Hope and Prayers Aren’t Enough.”
May, 1968 Sally Edelstein and her best friend Karen Levine with homemade RFK for President poster
The short but powerful video explains the genesis of this piece that began nearly half a century ago when I was a young volunteer for Bobby Kennedy for President, shattered by his shooting 55 years ago today.
That the video was created in the shadow of the anniversary of RFK’s assassination was particularly poignant.
It’s a story with seemingly no ending.
