Buddha of South Africa (for Archbishop Desmond Tutu) , originally uploaded by GreggChadwick . Last night was the 20th Anniversary Celebration of Artists for a New South Africa . I was honored to be there and painted this small work as a gift for Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who unfortunately was not able to make the event. Alfre Woodard at Jabulani! Artists for a New South Africa We were treated to stirring speeches by Ahmad Kathrada, Barbara Hogan, Alfre Woodard, and a videotaped message from Archbishop Tutu. Jason White & the West Angeles Church Mass Choir got the hall rocking. And Corey Chisel and Jackson Browne provided soulful sets of inspiring music. Jackson Browne and band played a stirring rendition of Little Steven's I am a Patriot .
