Are you into art?

I have to con­fess, I don’t care much about art, espe­cially paint­ings. There are some kind of paint­ings I really like, though. Since I don’t know what I’m talk­ing about I’ll call it con­tem­po­rary art but I’m gonna hang one of these pic­tures on my bed­room wall, that’s for sure. I like the look of most of them. Just because of that I’d like to intro­duce a project to you, a very good friend of mine has been work­ing on for some time now. It’s almost fin­ished and it it – as you may have guessed – about art. Obvi­ously, ART WORLD PROJECT is going to be a full suc­cess if you can believe the news posted there.

Usu­ally, I’m not one to write about stuff I don’t under­stand well enough. In this case, I’ll make an excep­tion since there is more to it than meets the eye. There’s a char­ity project going on in the back­ground with the goal of donat­ing all net prof­its to child aid pro­grams around the world. Strong argu­ments claim that Glob­al­iza­tion ben­e­fits those with more finan­cial lever­age at the expense of the poor. It’s the usual prob­lem – the rich get richer while the poor get ever poorer. With this char­ity project they will con­tribute to bet­ter liv­ing con­di­tions and bet­ter edu­ca­tion for poor chil­dren. I wish them all the best.

    I like the style of that art­work as well. At first I was afraid because I thought with the name it might be boogers or some­thing. haha

    Those are some nice pieces for your bedroom!

    I like art, and I love to sup­port up-​​and-​​coming artists.

    It’s always cool to write out­side your com­fort zone. I’ll be attend­ing the Humana Fes­ti­val in Louisville, Ky and I will be blog­ging about plays and play­wrights. I know noth­ing on this sub­ject, but the fes­ti­val invited me to blog about it, so what can I do?

    jlee: I’m glad you over­came your fear! :)

    evil spock: Thx. I really like that kinda pic­tures (I’m not cross­ing a line here call­ing them “pic­tures”, I hope).

    You can attend and write some good stuff about it so that the rest of us knows what we missed ;)
