Return to Italy!
After a successful exhibit at the Social Culture Café group exhibit at Internazionale a Ferrara over the weekend of October 5 to 7, I've pleased to be invited by Giancarlo Beltrame to participate in the Dante's Comedy on Mobile Art video project. The project consists of three videos; Paradise, Hell and Purgatory. Photos for the videos have been contributed by 100 artists worldwide. My contribution, The Old Church, can be found in the Purgatory video at about the 4 minute, 10 second mark. The photo credits are at the end of the video and begin at about the 13 minute mark. The credits are displayed in alphabetical order by first name and list the name of all 100 artists involved in the project. The three videos are shown in the cave of Villa Scopoli in Verona, Italy, from October 14 to 21, as part of the event Bosco Divino. The exhibit was inspired by Dante Alighieri and his Comedy. Giancarlo reports that more than 2,500 people visited the event during it's opening day.
