Artist-in-Residence, Dinan, France
February 2015
This cute little house – “La Vignette” – accommodates the artist-in-residence selected by Les Amis de la Grande Vigne under the auspices of the Yvonne Jean-Haffen Museum. La Vignette is situated at the base of the large property that belonged to celebrated painter Yvonne Jean-Haffen. The late artist bequeathed her home to the city of Dinan in Brittany as a museum, and the little house at its base as a residence for visiting artists. Eleven artists are selected annually and offered the exclusive use of La Vignette for one month. See images and learn more about my residency here.

Narrow Bridge by Lilianne Milgrom
'The Bridge' exhibition
February 2 - 28 at the Church of Saint-Germain des Pres, Paris
In the midst of the increasing chasm of discord and misunderstanding that exists between the Middle East and the West, and between cultures and religions, I am proud to be participating in and co-curating the 7th CARAVAN Exhibition of Visual Art titled The Bridge that opened at the historic Church of Saint Germain des Prés in Paris' Latin Quarter. This unprecedented bridge-building exhibition will travel for 18 months throughout Europe and the United States, spreading the word of mutual respect and acceptance. More about the inspiration for my painting (left) on my blog post Vive la liberté.

Ceramics Monthly Magazine February 2015 issue features
Lilianne Milgrom's article 'Playing with Fire in Paris'
During my last visit to Paris I reviewed a contemporary ceramics exhibition held at the renowned ceramics gallery Lefebvre et Fils that was curated by French critic and writer Alexis Jakubowicz. The works in the show were of particular interest because many of the artists were not ceramicists. They came from diverse disciplines but shared an interest in going back to the tradition of craft and even further back to the very earliest creative material used by Man - clay.

AMEN : A Prayer for the World
IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO BE PART OF MY UNIQUE INTERACTIVE WORK!
I was honored to have been chosen as one of 18 Western artists along with 30 leading Egyptian artists in the ambitious project initiated by CARAVAN - a humanitarian interfaith arts foundation. The exhibition opened at the National Cathedral in DC, and then continued onto New York City's Cathedral of St. John the Divine through November, 2014. My piece - Virtual Angel - was sold to the sponsors, SODIC, and is on its way to its new home in Egypt. I designed my piece specifically so that the public could respond and be a part of the ongoing dialogue. Find out how you can participate and read more about the inspiration for the work here.
