Know your event objective. If the aim of the event is to educate people then the entertainment is not the key element of the event. You would do better to use some light form of entertainment during the break to help attendees unwind and rel Music is a vast sea and there are lots of singers in the world who earn so much fame because of their singing, voice and style and Rob Thomas is one of them. He is one of the best singers whose songs become very popular and he has great fan
Though a gifted artist at an early age, Maribel Matthews found herself shepherded in another direction, toward teaching, by the guiding voices in her life. Many years later, after a fulfilling career, she found herself standing in front of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus. It was a revelation. She knew, in that moment, that painting would become a central part of her life. Matthews paints with oils, capturing in her work the deity-like guests of a masquerade, a loving mother and child, and the classic Venice waterways.Her work pays homage to the ever-abounding good in life that is lived but often unseen. “There is so much violence and sadness around us,” Matthews says. “To create something beautiful is important. It is almost like creating a portal to a better world.” That Matthews, a charitable woman in her own right, would paint the charity of the world is no surprise. “If I can spread a little joy this way, I am satisfied,” she says.Maribel Matthews lives and works in Gibraltar.

The show puts Japanese experiments with abstract textures in ink next to Mexican hyperrealistic oil portraits of real-life figures. There are fantastical manipulations of the female body in wood from Armenia and Indian contemplations of the infinite in acrylic. Side by side, the pieces challenge us to figure out what they have in common as much as they ask us how they are different. When artwork of this kind of range is presented altogether, an image of the state of contemporary art begins to emerge. Unbound Perspectives is essential viewing for anyone looking for a true survey of contemporary art that is far-reaching yet discerning.
