Each month, the Fourth Wall Arts Salon provides a rich program of Fine Art, Music, Dance, Theatre, Poetry, and
Topical Lectures on Art & Culture to arts patrons and enthusiasts. Emerging Philadelphia artists and intellectuals of
high caliber are asked to present or perform their work. They gain exposure to an ever broadening community of
colleagues and professionals, and in turn these communities are entertained, enriched, and educated by their experience.

BERNARD COLLINS"My paintings are a reflection of my desire to understand the human body and
soul. As an African American artist I have had to balance my educational
background which has been firmly grounded in European (traditional)
techniques such as glazing, under-painting etc and my desire to capture the
liveliness and innovativeness that is present in African American culture. The
painted faces that have become important to my body of work represent the raw
creative energy that pulses within all people of color. My models have always
been my fellow artists, writers, poets, rappers, singers etc. In the future I want
to expand this body of work to include some very young and elderly subjects.
Their life experience will be reflected in the way I apply the paints to their faces
and bodies."
