Alpha & Omega Project for Contemporary Religious Arts Names Artist of Year for 2012: Siona Benjamin

ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By TAHLIB

Noted art critic, Richard Mcbee has described Siona Benjamin's work as "simply beautiful" (see above), and you agree. Following a string of 2012 exhibitions and talks from Colorado to New York, an overwhelming majority of A&O members/subscribers joined Mcbee in voting her series, "Finding Home" as the A&O Religious Art of 2012 for breaking religious barriers to interfaith dialogue in America. Unlike previous years, where a single work has been singled out for recognition, this year Benjamin's collective work and outreach is being recognized for its impact as a catalyst for dialogue that is changing a religiously ignorant America.
