Myths
& Realities
Thursday, June 5th, 2008, 6 –
9 PM
The Spark, 161 West 22nd
Street (6th & 7th Ave), New York, NY, 10011
Global Fusion Art presents an exciting evening of art, music and more, inspired by myths
and icons from around the world. A myth is an abstraction of reality, a reflection of experiences of a culture by which
it was created. As we step into the multicultural realm shown in the work of our participating artists, co-existing
myths and realities demand reconciliation.
Global Fusion Art is a collective group of multicultural artists and
communities committed to support cross-cultural understanding through visual arts, music, performance and multi-media.
We seek to raise awareness of the global community and promote individuals and organizations that provide humanitarian services
across the world. For this event, artists pledge 10% of sale price of artwork and event proceeds will be donated to
Oxfam Myanmar Cyclone Relief and Rehabilitation Fund.
