Pope Francis Receiving de Forest's "Resurrection" November 2015

In 2015, the young artist was awarded the International Giuseppe Sciacca Award for Painting and Art, an acknowledgment of a select few young people chosen from around the globe, believed to be changing the world for the better. While in Rome, she was invited to the Vatican where Autumn then presented a piece of her artwork to Pope Francis. The piece "Resurrection" now resides in the Vatican. The Vatican Series Collection is currently on exhibition at the Gallery of Music & Art at the Forum Shops at Caesar's.

"I have always wanted to change the world for the better with my art, explains Autumn, "and if my paintings can help other young people express themselves, by providing money for musical instruments, arts education, or to help supply arts materials, that is just incredible. That is just an incredible honor…" "And if my artwork can help those who have been in a tragedy," she continues, "or a natural disaster, by helping young people to express their hope, or even their fears with creativity, well, that is just an incredible feeling.

The Butler Institute of American Art, premiered the exhibition, "Autumn de Forest: The Tradition Continues" which ran through October 17th, 2016. By all accounts, at age 15, she is the youngest artist to ever have her work featured in a solo exhibition in a major US museum.

It is with this sort of nod to the past, and respect for art history which makes de Forest such a welcome addition to today's art and museum world. "This wonderful exhibition of paintings by such a young artist gives us hope about the future of American art." says the museum's director Dr. Lou Zona about Autumn's exhibition. "(She) has inspired us with her creativity, her knowledge of the field and her outstanding accomplishment.".
