Planning, scheduling, etc. for one of the proudest moments of my life. My father's 100th birthday. Family will be coming in from all across the United States. It will be quite a celebration for the finest, kindest gentleman's gentleman and patriarch I have ever known. We are all so fortunate to have Max, father, grandfather, great grandfather, uncle, cousin, friend and an inspiration to all who know him.  

     It is indeed a humbling experience to represent the U.S. and to be selected in the Top 50 VIP Artist of the Biennale Internazionale d'Arte del Mediterraneo in Palermo, Italy. It is extremely gratifying to have my art shipped to Palermo to hang with the artists of your selections. Thank you again for the honor and for your support of my art and all the artists that you continue to professionally support. 
 

In deepest gratitude and respect, 

Susan N. McCollough

    The Fair of “Mediterraneo” (Biennale of the Mediterranean) is one of the most important Italian Fairs and it is held in Palermo, Italy. The fair has been organized for 65 editions (from 1946 to 2008 and then 2015 and 2016), and every year local and foreign products have been exhibited in the fair stands. The fair was born in 1946 and for this occasion a triangle shaped area of about fourteen hectares has been created to the hillside of Monte Pellegrino, next to one of the entrance of the Park of Favorita. During the years, this area reached a surface of 86,000 m², becoming the mirror of the economic growth of those years. Since the beginning, the Fair is one of the most important places of Sicily, for its size and value.
