PRNewswire/ -- On January 19th, Benjamin Ferencz, the legendary Nuremberg Chief Prosecutor was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal โ the nation's highest.
That was the seed of an idea for Eric Kline to create a documentary not only of the conversations he taped between these two legends, but to also follow Heller's artistic journey as he created the bust of Ferencz in a mere two weeks' time. At the end of the visit, Heller asked Ferencz if he could create a bust of him. Like Ferencz, he has long been an advocate of tolerance, leading him to create "The Garden of Humanity" in Boca Raton, Florida. He has been an advocate of and has been cited as one of the main catalysts behind the formation of the International Criminal Court, implementing the formation of 'rule of law.' The appreciation for Ferencz has been going on for years. Each bust will be made from the original mold, cast in bronze, mounted on marble, hand signed and numbered by the sculptor.
