It also asks us to think carefully on such complex issues as what it means to be both human and responsibly human.</p> <p>I am honored to be associated with the <a href="http://www.zeitzfoundation.org/">Zeitz Foundation</a>. Their dedication to promoting a holistic approach to understanding our world through art is exemplary.
