While expressing a delightful view of life, each image makes serious comment as it reflects on leisure, relationships, and the individuals portrayed. The art exhibited below is from a suite of etchings in which Amarger portrays World Famous Newspapers. The images are whimsical and serious in their display of the essence of world news and the culture of the countries represented. The suite images are: El Paris (France), Jerusalem Post (Israel), Los Angeles Times (USA) , New York Post, (USA) and Yomiuri Shimburn (Japan).
