Post by Otto Rapp It came as a great shock to find out this morning that Ernst Fuchs passed away. I am very sad. Rest In Peace dear Ernst!
Post by Otto Rapp The site for the Visionary Hall of Fame existed for some time already. Integrated with the Visionary Art Gallery where the majority of the pages are currently hosted, it became necessary to migrate those pages to this stand-alone site. At this time, we have tested a new and much more dynamic design. We are currently in progress of migrating more pages to the newly designed site. So far, the following Hall of Fame Artists had been moved : Eventually, we will migrate all the Hall of Fame pages currently hosted on the VAG site. Also in the plans are to make pages for the current external links to artist sites, found under the Home page tab on the Hall of Fame Site. This development was long overdue, considering that this here site, associated with the VAG, has grown exponentially also. Currently, there are over 500 artists represented on the VAG, and the best of their individual works are displayed here under Featured Artwork . Developing a separate site for the Hall of Fame was necessary.
