MENTOR HUEBNER EXHIBITS

During his lifetime Mentor had 50 One Artist Solo Exhibits. Some of his art work was featured in various Art Galleries by Art Dealers, or were sponsored by private and official entities in Historical or other Public buildings. His art work was frequently included in prestigious Group Exhibits both Nationally and Internationally and his Post Impressionist Paintings were displayed in numerous Competitive Shows where he received many wards. Mentor’s Fine Art and Motion Picture Production Art are as collectable as his Fine Arts Paintings and both can be found in private collections World-Wide. This following list of Exhibits represents just a small portion of Mentor's Shows. They have been deliberately selected to show the diversity of his appeal and his sponsors.
