"Powers of Bush" has been awarded Second Prize at "Perceptions of Our President" A Juried Exhibition, Juror, Kristina Newhouse, September 11 - October 29, 2004.

The following information is excerpted from the Gallery's web site:

Koo's Art Center, in partnership with OPEN, presents: "Perceptions of Our President", a juried national exhibition designed to artistically encapsulate the varied and diverse perceptions of our 43rd President, George W. Bush. The motivation for this exhibition is nested in the Koo's mission statement, "…to promote social awareness…through the arts."

Sensationalism has been used throughout American History to promote political agenda. With "Perceptions of Our President", we hope to explore the impact of a mega-media culture and how it is used to influence perceptions. The Dictionary defines perception as the quality, state, or capability, of being affected by something external; sensation; sensibility. "Perceptions of Our President" is a rumination on the impact of sensationalism in our modern culture.

The juror, Kristina Newhouse is curator of the Joslyn Fine Arts Gallery in the City of Torrance. She is a reviews editor and regular contributor to the Los Angeles arts publication X-Tra. She has also contributed to Art+Text, Artnet, Sculpture, and New Art Examiner.
