SUMMARY:Lila Kadaj Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Lila Kadaj received her MFA from Wayne State University. Her 
 work has been shown at numerous institutions\, including the Detroit Ins
 titute of Arts\, the Cranbrook Art Museum\, and the Arab American Nation
 al Museum. She spent nearly 27 years teaching art at Detroit Public scho
 ols. Artist statement: “When looking at a beautiful flower. It’s jus
 t itself. Just there......no.....it does not proclaim its purpose for bl
 ooming is to make people happy. It just is. Like standing in front of an
  easel and painting........just is.......no matter......what proclamatio
 ns may be concluded to sway the viewer. Same thing goes for fine art. It
 ’s not about I am a woman....it’s not about I am a first generation 
 Arab American.....it’s not about being a child of trauma....it’s not
  about a member of my family being gunned down on the street....it’s a
 bout being born a painter.....standing in front of my easel and working 
 to create a "Piece of Fine Art". Not standing on some soap box and expec
 ting my words to somehow qualify my painting. It’s the painting\, draw
 ing or sculpture that must speak on its own.......on how the artist.....
 .via the intellect and muse uses the elements to create something distin
 ct and first rate. It can be quiet or loud. I see so much very weak work
  uplifted not for its quality but because it’s in fashion.â€\n\nMore i
