Print Description:
|
Pillars of a Nation is
a painting about the experience of emigration. It was commissioned by a man
whose grandfather went to Ellis Island when he immigrated to America from
Hungary in 1907. Like most of the immigrants who passed through Ellis Island, he
came with few resources except a burning desire to succeed.
Pillars of a Nation is a tribute to that grandfather and to
all immigrants who came to North America.
What excited and moved me about the Great Hall at Ellis Island, where the immigrants
waited to be processed, was the level and range of emotion that must have been experienced
by those passing through inspection. They must have run the gamut of emotions - the joy
and excitement of beginning a new life in a new country and all the hopes and dreams
of the future. But there was another emotion, too; that emotion was fear - the intense,
overwhelming fear of being rejected and sent back. Waiting in the Great Hall they must
have experienced the most important moments in their lives. It was these contrasting
emotions and feelings that I wanted to portray in Pillars of a Nation.
