2009

CATEGORIES: ART

In 2009 in London the art competition is organized for the very first time by the Passion for Freedom, an independent group of friends standing up for freedom of speech and artistic expression expressed by the means of art.

The idea of creating a space where there is no censorship and artists who love their country can show their works without fear of repression from politicians or those in power.

3 questions provide free space for the works of artists to create a true platform of what freedom is.

WHAT IS FREEDOM?
HOW DO YOU PRESERVE IT?
HOW DO YOU CELEBRATE IT?

“Painting is not made to decorate apartments. It’s an offensive and defensive weapon against the enemy. (about Guernica).”

― Pablo Picasso
