Robert Cousins, Executive Editor of The Dartmouth Apologia, has just released a review of VAF’s film on Romanian sculptor, Liviu Mocan, in their latest issue. He writes:

The film alternates segments of voiceover—mostly by Mocan—and interviews with family members, scholars and other citizens who have been affected by his art. It opens with a brief sequence in which Mocan introduces himself and his philosophy toward art and Christianity. “I am a sculpture,” he says, and as the ensuing twenty-six minutes emphasize over and over again, he is a man who considers his life, his faith and his art inextricably linked.

Hundreds of people have seen this film and we have received many positive comments and praise. Film makers, visual artist, poets and several other artist have found strong identification with this film. Click here if you would like to read the full review in the latest Dartmouth Apologia.
