Highlight for Album: Dreaming Cows Mural Project
Dreaming Cows Mural Project
For Heifer International Murphy Keller Education Center - Little Rock, Arkansas

In 2007 I was invited by Heifer International (HI) to create a mural for their Murphy-Keller Eduction Center in Little Rock, AR scheduled to open in 2009. This Dreaming Cows Mural Project, 7' tall x 90' wide, evolved as a series of 27 individually cut and shaped plywood panels,, approximately 7' x 4' each, representing HI projects around the world. Since they are also reproduced in gicleé print format, it is possible to present the Dreaming Cows Mural Project as a circulating exhibit.

Highlight for Album: Surviving War, Dreaming Home
Surviving War, Dreaming Home
Inspired by annual journeys to Eritrea and Ethiopia from 1994 to 2001 during periods of peace and war, my images reflect war zone life and camps for Internally Displaced People. Survival conditions are portrayed, as well as people's spirit of community, their resilience and dreams of returning home. While Africa is the catalyst for this exhibit, the themes are too common throughout our world today.

Quotes
"Betty LaDuke's Africa Through the Eyes of Women Artists unusual portraits of twelve artists from Africa and the Diaspora, makes a significant contribution to women's studies, African diaspora studies, and art history and cultural history. This collection of essays. which results from sensitive interviews conducted by LaDuke with women of African descent throughout the diaspora provides extraordinary insight into the nature of creative expression among a group of women too long ignored by scholars. LaDuke's pioneering and courageous effort to make visible in this way such a diverse group of talented women deserves our applause."
