Since the passing of Betty White, it has become abundantly clear that she is the one person in America who everyone loves, no matter what your affiliations may be.
Zenith Gallery and our artists want to start the year off right with love and positivity by celebrating the life of Betty White. “She is loved by everyone, and I believe through the celebration of her life we can be united.” Said Margery Goldberg, Founder, Zenith Gallery. “We have created a website that will go live the day of the opening, www.BettyWhiteUnites.com, for this show and as a means to memorialize her.”
Throughout her 80-year career she has touched so many generations. Tributes continue pour in across the world for ‘cultural icon’ Betty White, as fans from President Biden to Ryan Reynolds to Jay-Z, pay homage.
“Live with it’: Betty White defied racist demands in 1954 when she featured Arthur Duncan on her television show when the network complained! She had creative control, which was rare for any actor at that time but especially for a woman. So, the network “lived with it” and it led to a long career for Mr. Duncan.
She broke barriers throughout her career – she was the first woman to win a Game Show Host Emmy Award and won the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. The awards and accolades are too numerous to mention.
Look for the documentary that is coming out in her name on her birthday, January 17!
Please join us to celebrate this amazing woman.

THE ART OF LOOKING:
Through the Eyes of Painter Bradley Stevens
Through January 19, 2022
At The Cosmos Club
2121 Massachusetts Ave NW Washington, DC 20008
Featured are select oil paintings from Bradley Stevens' series of museum interiors and will be on display at the Cosmos Club September 17, 2021 through January 19, 2022. In exquisite depictions of museum spaces, Stevens explores the psychological intersection between the viewer and the work of art. With his mastery of color, composition and gesture, Stevens lures us into quiet, contemplative moments of museum visitors absorbed in paintings. These superbly rendered works are Stevens’ homage to the master painters who have influenced him and the museums that are a constant source of inspiration.
