Alke Schmidt Exhibitions Home From the comment book for the CRISIS Exhibition with Jess Hurd "A really beautiful moving exhibition. The emotions the art and photography illicited in me are almost overwhelming. Very thought provoking and inspirational. Never give up." "This was a real eye opener." "Absolutely brilliant exhibition by both artists. You tell the stories beautifully and powerfully." "Thanks - not only does it provoke an emotional response, but it gets people talking. Excellent!" "Congratulations to you both - inspiring, activist and thoughtful, and a wonderful antidote to the diet of apolitical contemporary practice promoted elsewhere." "Challenging, informative, striking, accessible, memorable, emotional, real, inspiring - well done for putting together such a stunning exhibition." "Spectacular work in a truly atmospheric setting. Superb talent." Excellent exhibition - especially the triptych on places of worship which is fabulous. It is important that the powerful subject matter of the exhibition does not overwhelm the quality of the artistic expression. I think these artists have succeeded on both levels." "Things like this can make a real difference - for the better. Some harrowing pictures showing we need to come together and make the change the world needs."
