Work by Disabled Artists on Display & Sale at Moss Rehab





by KYW's Karin Phillips

A show and sale of art by professional artists living with disabilities is on display for three more weeks at an Elkins Park rehabilitiation center.  
 
The artwork goes on and on, up and down the hallways of Moss Rehab in Elkins Park, representing many media. Cliff Anderson (photo) - a local musician and artist who has lived with polio for decades - has submitted work for years - this year, a nude and a still-life of a fading flower:

"I'm emphasizing the color and the excitement in color, almost as in a note or chord in music."

Lois Levy, director of the All About Art show, says there are 40 new artists this year:

"It's a very competitive show, it continues to be, which means a lot of the artists who get in know that and they feel they've accomplished something if even just one piece is accepted into our show."
