Flora Lamson Hewlett Library, 2400 Ridge Road Berkeley, CA 94709

Join the GTU for a reception with a talk by artist Salma Arastu, as we celebrate the opening of our new exhibition "Salma Arastu: Seeking Oneness," on display at the GTU Library from October 11, 2018 through January 11, 2019.

Artist Salma Arastu has almost 40 solo shows to her credit, and sees her work as inspired by the spirit of the divine. "I have constantly searched for meaning and have arrived at one word, Oneness, which I am seeking constantly through my paintings, sculptures, and poetry,” Arastu reflects. Over the past more than thirty years she has created images with continuous, lyrical line and a variety of re-purposed materials in an effort to express joy in the universal spirit that unites humanity.
