These video clips are samples of various Lumen Arts projects from 2004 - 2014.  All video and animation were created and edited by Barbara Whitaker.

Shakespeare and Company was the first short produced by Lumen Arts.  Urban Gleaners is a comentary on urban life in New York City in 2008.  New York City 4/11/12 is a portion of a press conference held by the Manhattan Borough President, Scott Stringer.  Peeling the Onion clip is a rough cut sample of the documentary currently in production (no brightness or color correction has been applied to this clip yet).  It features "Fadi," a Seeds of Peace "seed."  Taped in 2005, Fadi talks of the failed "Oslo peace talks" and his hope for peace in the future.  The interview with Bashir Ja'afari, Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations, was taped on August 12, 2010, shortly before Syria's civil war began.  Bethlehem is a number of short clips showing every day life in Bethlehem.
