Culture Shock




Life is expanding...African Art culture was a great experience! Inspired!  Our neighbor, Bente Vindvik is an artist.  She invited Vicki and I with her husband Jon to the Celemar Galeria at Ilha de Luanda for the Exposicao Cooperate in celebration of Angola's 35th anniversary of independence from Portugal.  Four of Bente's African theme pieces were on display.  Even though the electricity went out during the program, there was still much to hear, taste and see.  In addition to the art pieces, the Angolan Minister of Culture was on hand, as well as African women drums corp, a theatrical group, fashion models and muscians.  All in a beautiful evening setting with warm, soft breezes off the Atlantic Ocean.
