I have been overwhelmingly impressed by the tenacity with technical skill with which Avant Arte made prints of the highest quality, fully up to the standards of Anni and Josef Albers, and they have succeeded beyond expectations in raising funds for work we do in trying to improve the lives of largely disadvantaged people in rural Senegal.”
