Art From Death Row
An Art show with a difference in Oakland CA showcases art created by death row residents at San Quentin, “Oakland North” – a news project of U.C. Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism – reports today.
The show reveals an amazing diversity of subject-matter and styles and a high level of skill and inspiration in the exhibitors.
The show’s organizers, members of Campaign to End the Death Penalty and Art for a Democratic Society, put the exhibit together in order to humanize the people who, they say, society forgets.
The exhibit has been on display at Rock Paper Scissors since the first of October and will come down next week.
For a full report of the opening night and pictures visit Art Live From Death Row at Oakland North.

Hmm, your blog looked totally ugly on my iphone, but now It’s OK
How did you fix it?
I’m having a little bit of trouble viewing your site in Firefox, but it may just be my computer. Apart from that, I love your site. I plan on browsing around and reading some more posts!
I just wanted to stop by and tell you that I really liked this entry. It was full of useful information and creativity, both of which we always need.
