Redbud Arts Center presents “Icons,” an exhibition by German artist Daniel Sambo-Richter from Berlin, Germany. The collection of oil paintings showcases Sambo-Richter's mastery in both landscape and portraiture, to explore the intersection of contemporary issues and historical events.

In “Icons,” the artist juxtaposes seemingly serene, yet powerful landscapes paintings with bold portraits, inviting viewers to reflect on the tension between the past and present. Each work narrates a story, offering glimpses into pivotal moments in history while drawing parallels to modern societal concerns.

Sambo-Richter’s approach encourages audiences to first connect with the paintings on a visual and emotional level before uncovering their deeper significance. This layered engagement fosters dialogue, allowing the artworks to speak not only to individual viewers but also to collective experiences shaped by time and memory.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display until April 26.
