Art From the Heart

AFTH’s ’tag’ mechanic enables a dynamic connection between modern audiences and the best of contemporary photography. The magic is empowerment: guests who purchase a tag may claim any one photograph at the exhibition — first come, first served. To purchase an advance tag and see 43 all-new preview images from the show, visit: VANDERBILTREPUBLIC.COM/AFTH Advance tag and general admission sales close NOVEMBER 11, 2011. ’Contemporary photography explores frontiers in content and technique to serve new communications and evolve attraction through aesthetics. Aesthetics create a channel to portray ideas and emotional content. AFTH presents each artwork equally, enabling tag holders to connect with the intrinsic value of the art shown. The experience highlights the complicity of the beholder’s eye in our communal search for truth in beauty.’ —JO-ANNEKE VAN DER MOLEN
