Childhood Revealed: Art Expressing Pain, Discovery and Hope
July 7 - September 16, 2001
Childhood Revealed: Art Expressing Pain, Discovery and Hope was organized in order to increase the public's awareness of the mental health problems facing more than eight million children in this country. The more than 100 artworks in the exhibition, made by children ages four to eighteen, offered a glimpse into the hearts and minds of young people dealing with psychiatric and emotional problems. Childhood Revealed was intended to dispel myths and eliminate stigmas surrounding mental health problems that often prevent parents and children from seeking assistance.
Organized by the New York University Child Study Center and circulated by Curatorial Assistance, Los Angeles.
