James Harithas’s twinkling eyes and broad smile drove his desire to enlist Art as a vehicle for truth and social justice. With curatorial talent he fearlessly enlisted incredible artists to exhibit at the Station Museum of Contemporary Art. Through this venue, Jim promoted artists that corporate funded museums could not. The community was invited to exciting openings with titles like Portrait of a Corporate Crime, Crude, Red Fall, Torture, or Hermann Nitsch: The Orgies. For inspiration, I would take my students on field trips to those exhibitions.
