This photo taken Saturday, May 10, 2014, shows an oil on canvas painting by by Palestinian artist Ashraf Sahwiel named Home Land, during an art exhibition "Traces, a testimony to memory," displaying over forty Palestinian artists work from Gaza, in the West Bank city of Ramallah. The Gaza Strip is tough turf for artists. An Israeli-Egyptian border blockade of the Hamas-ruled territory keeps them away from an international audience and potential buyers, while the local art market is close to nil. A new exhibit now offers them a chance to showcase their work outside Gaza. (AP Photo/Nasser Nasser)
