The ART that is FUEGO MUNDO
The “Art Wall” at FuegoMundo displays a few of Masha Hleap-Hershkovitz fathers' works as a tribute to his name, and as a kick-off to their rotating local South American artist exhibit at FuegoMundo. It is estimated that Hleap produced over 3,000 pieces of art in his lifetime. He was well known for making a painting out of a memory and pleasantly surprised many people with his gift of a painting depicting a portrait of themselves or recent casual encounter or place of interest they shared together.
