This is a themed exhibition for the month of February. The art of love. Whether it be August Rodin’s “The Kiss” or Robert Indiana’s “Love” sculpture, artists have always had something to say about love. Love is a strong emotion, and is as difficult to define as art itself. Explore the concept of love, the heart and Valentines Day for the month of February. Each artist interprets the concept in their own medium based on their own life experiences and feelings.
