“Brilliance! 2022” – a virtual exhibition of creative works from the international brain tumour community is now online

We are delighted to announce that the second “Brilliance!“ international virtual art exhibition is now online to mark International Brain Tumour Awareness Week 2022

Following the success of the 2021 Brilliance Exhibition, the International Brain Tumour Alliance is pleased to again showcase the creativity and talent of the international brain tumour community. In “Brilliance! 2022” you will see the work and read the words of patients, their family members and friends, health care professionals and scientists. All have found a way to distill or expand upon their experience within the world of brain tumours or to find a new perspective on life through the challenges they have faced.

“Brilliance! 2022” features the work of 34 artists from nine countries; some have never shown their work in a public exhibition before. These works express uniquely personal responses to a situation that is common to all the artists but experienced differently.

The creative impulse in each artist opens a window to diverse feelings and experiences. By sharing these artistic representations, a common bond is formed and all who contribute cease to be alone.

We hope that you find resonance and inspiration in the words and images of the “Brilliance! 2022” exhibition. The full catalogue can be viewed online here or downloaded from our website here.

“Brilliance!” – the IBTA’s first virtual art exhibition launches to mark International Brain Tumour Awareness Week 2021

“Brilliance!” – the IBTA’s first virtual art exhibition launches to mark International Brain Tumour Awareness Week 2021

The IBTA is thrilled to announce the launch of its first virtual art exhibition of creative works from the global brain tumour community.

Brain tumour patients, family members and healthcare professionals from around the world were invited to submit up to three created pieces to “Brilliance!” together with a short explanatory text describing their artworks and how they, themselves, have been affected by a brain tumour.

In response to our invitation, we received a large number of incredible creations which shine a light on the uniqueness of our international brain tumour community and reflect a broad range of artistic media, cultures and geographic regions.

The “Brilliance!” exhibition catalogue is now available to view online and will remain available for viewing indefinitely as a tribute to the determination and resilience of our international brain tumour community and as a symbol of hope and inspiration for all.

Visit the IBTA’s “Brilliance!” virtual art exhibition catalogue here or tap/click on the cover below. To best appreciate the submitted artworks, the catalogue should be viewed in “full screen mode”. Download the catalogue directly here.
