On 17 December 2015 a Closing Reception & Solstice Party was held at the ¡Buen Vivir! Gallery for the exhibit The End of the Game – The Last Word from Paradise, Revisited.

Although the Gallery is officially closed until 4 March 2016, this exhibit will continue to be on display by appointment only for an unspecified period of time. To make an appointment, please call +1.716.931.5833.

With the support of the Peter Beard Studio, ¡Buen Vivir! Gallery presented this exhibition to commemorate the 50th anniversary of artist Peter Beard’s book, The End of the Game – The Last Word from Paradise.

Happy holidays to all and next year may people soon know the meaning of ¡buen vivir!, a concept stemming from Indigenous and other cultures of the Southern Americas. ¡Buen vivir! means life in harmony between humans, communities, and the Earth–where work is not a job to make others wealthier, but for a livelihood that is sustaining, fulfilling, and in tune with the common good.
