at the Charles George VA Medical Center.

The collection punc-tuates not only Bora’s proficiency in vari-ous media, but also his remarkable diversity of style. Benedict spoke to the large gathering about how the presen-tation was organized. “What finally emerged was to base this show on his different series’ and the broad mastery of the many different mediums that Vadim had the freedom to explore.”

Benedict thanked Richards for his chance to work with her on the project. “It’s really given me a greater under-standing and apprecia-tion for the richness of Vadim’s work as well as his talents. Constance has shared a lot of very personal stories as we’ve sifted through a tremendous amount of work that Vadim accomplished.”
