Hi,
I am a foundation student at the Cyprus Academy of Art and I recently found out about your project while researching for a project of mine related to art. I think what you are doing is very interesting and revolutionary too. Is it possible to run your project in cyprus as well? It might be very interesting to find out how cypriots picture love. I could help in the whole procedure.
Best regards,
midia

PAINTING LOVE HAS BEEN DONE IN 9 DIFFERENT CITIES WORLD WIDE AND FROM SEPTEMBER 11TH – 17TH 2009 WE WANT TO CELEBRATE THIS WITH A BIG “PL” EXHIBITION AT GAMMELTORV IN COPENHAGEN.

Please have a look at the exhibition prints:

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

On September 21st 2005 we did the first Painting Love event at Gammeltorv in Copenhagen. NOW almost exactly 4 years later Painting Love has been done in 9 different cities all over the world and even been accomplished by people outside of the established project. We want to celebrate this by exhibiting our photos of the paitnings, still photos and stories from our journey. This happens at Gammeltorv in Copenhagen September 11-17th 2009.

In deep respect to the tragedy 9/11 we want to remember love on this particular day and the 6 following days by exhibiting our photos from all of the Painting Love events that has reminded both the participants and the Painting Love crew of one very important thing:

Painting Love is remembering love.
