On behalf of Manhattan Arts International I’ve had the honor and pleasure to present exhibitions devoted to “The Healing Power of ART” for more than 20 years — both in NYC venues and on this website. The show’s purpose is to promote the scientifically proven fact that art heals by transforming one’s physiological state and perception.
“The Healing Power of ART” 2018 ran from January 10 – March 10, 2019, and included outstanding art and statements by 70 artists.

Beautiful and exceptional exhibit this year. It was a joy to see.
Hey Renee—-greetings from Lima, Peru and just want to Thankyou for including me in your last two exhibitions. I certainly appreciate it and I shall be doing a solo exhibition at the Esplanade museum in Alberta in April/May. I believe that the organization you have created is awesome and gives artists a chance to show their work on an international stage!!! Thanx again———Poul

Thank you Diane, coming from such an incredible artist that you are, that’s a wonderful compliment!
As I experience beauty, I wrote this:
Down the circumference of time –
meandering truth –
hurriedly glance –
hurtling by,
beauty! beauty! halt!
Here in this exhibition, beauty halts,
and we can unhurriedly contemplate it,
Thank you artists and thank you Renee,
Dear Renee,

Dear Renee!
I am very honoured to be selected by you and your team for the “Awards of Merit Winners”, but above all to participate at your side with all these talented artists.
The meeting point of many artists through their mediums and approaches, undeniably gives an inner strength to all to lead to the deep healing of the being, of its soul.
I thank you again for your work, for your passion to transmit and help artists through their promotion.
My artistic approach is in a profound correlation with man’s introspection into his environment, on a universal level, and his well-being.
I would do an article on my site, with in turn an emphasis on “Manhattan Arts” & “Healing Power Of Arts” in the interest of all.
See you soon!

Thanks a lot for honoring me with the Award for Merit for my painting “Reflection”. very excited to share this news with my friends and my collectors as well. Thanks once again to Renee Philips.
Exquisite…, I always enjoyed the art works for the Healing Power of ART show. Many thanks to the artists and many thanks to Rene, for her tremendous work.
Let me quote again from Emily Dickinson’s poem 1585
“What respite from her thrilling toil
Did Beauty ever take—
But Work might be electric Rest
To those that Magic make”
Those artists “Magic make”, here
