ContainerArt lands in Italy

Exhibiting art in the centre of a city can be very hard, or very illegal. Taking a different approach to urban exhibits is the Container Art: Beauty Inside Project. "An urban, itinerant and adaptive art exhibit" travels the world compiling art and ideas to showcase in 22ft containers.

Mixing contemporary styles and concepts in each container around the chosen city. One of the projects key goals is interaction with one and other.

The latest project, "Ecosystems" in Genova, Italy started well on May 29th and will stay until June 8th 2008 and features Art, Nature and Spirituality from around the globe. Sculptures, installations, paintings, canvas art, you name it, there in these containers.

Events:
-Mechanical Art from Kaohsiung
(exhibition of recycled metal sculptures from Kaohsiung)
-Beauty Inside. Yoga among metal sculptures
and presentation
(taking the form of a guided meditation)
-Writer's Delight
(Writers' performance on two containers)
-Parole Spalancate sui Tetti
( Let the poets speak out.)
-Au revoir les Artiste
(when all is said and done, one last toast to celebrate artists and poets)

With Haifa and Venice on the coming soon list, this urban arts project looks set for a while longer, and hopefully will be announcing more dates and exhibitions soon.
