A r t p e a c e l i n k A r t p e a c e l i n k Artists for Nonviolent Alternatives (516)286-0812 Advisor: Dore Ashton "Returning violence for violence only multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars." --Martin Luther King, Jr. "Imagine that you are creating the building of human destiny with the object of making men happy in the end, giving them peace and rest at last, but that it was essential and inevitable to torture to death only one tiny creature and to found that edifice on its unavenged tears, would you consent to be the architect on those conditions?" --Fyodor Dostoevsky, Brothers Karamazov Introduction: We affirm that murder and forcible expulsion of people are crimes against humanity. Bombing, though, is not an effective nor civilized way to solve conflicts and is no less criminal. It is bitter to realize that at the end of the 20th century, after two world wars--the most cruel and severe in the history of mankind--our civilization still resorts to conflict resolution not through dialogue, but armed force. It seems that no lesson was learned from this century's horrific experiences and we are destined to fall once again into a vicious cycle of death and destruction. All of Europe is affected by the war in the Balkans. In addition to the obliteration of Serb police and army sites in Kosovo, NATO has demolished much of the civilian infrastructure of Yugoslavia. Hundreds of civilians were killed, thousands wounded, and hundreds of thousands left jobless. Bombed were television stations, oil refineries, chemical plants, electric transmission facilities, major roadways, airports, hospitals, schools, medieval monasteries, as well as numerous museums and monuments. Cluster bombs, 25 percent of which fail to detonate, litter the terrain with land mines for years to come. This war can lead to political, social, and ecological destruction of Europe and the rest of the world. Proposal (Consisting of Two Parts): 1. Group Exhibition: Open to all media--painting, sculpture, photography, video, installation, and computer generated art concerning the definitions of human, humane, humanitarian/ism, humanity, humanize. 2. Collaborative Piece Artpeace: each artist/writer/photographer who is willing to participate shall contribute an art piece the size of his/her hand. The amount of artwork received will determine the installation in the space. The unified art piece will be linked together in the form of a tree and continue to grow exponentially as artists from around the world send in their contributions via mail or the internet. Purpose: The proceeds from the sales will be donated to an independent humanitarian organization (to be determined) that does not take a military position and that provides medical and other crucial aid to those who are suffering as a result of this war: both Albanian and Serbian victims. This exhibition, however, is intended to raise much more than money. By bringing together artists from different countries we would be creating a dialogue and, therefore, taking significant steps towards the peace process. Participants: Visual artists/Writers who would like to participate in the name of peace.

This installation marks the first New York presentation of works by the late German artist (1940-1993), who was celebrated in international exhibitions such as the Venice biennial (1980) and documenta (1977 & 1987), but never exhibited in the United States during her lifetime. Anna Oppermann's chosen term 'ensemble' describes not only the form of her work, but also refers to the process of its construction. The ensembles were created often over many years, growing from ordinary everyday found objects, small still lives, flower or plant leaves, and words or phrases taken from passing conversation. The resulting assemblages led the artist to specific problems, which she approached by adding new observations, comments, and findings. In the ensembles, each step of this artistic process of perception, research, and interpretation is documented and constantly rearranged. Oppermann declared 'from the personal to the general' as a main tendency in her visual thought process. Over 60 large works by Anna Oppermann remain - assembled from hundreds of little pieces based on themes such as 'being a woman', 'being an artist,' 'being different,' 'love, eroticism, sex,' as well the thematic areas 'oil on canvas', 'myth and enlightenment' or the 'economical aspect' (of making art). 'Being different (Why is she so different?)', 1970-1980 is not a self-portrait, nor does it describe otherness as an identifiable trait. Instead, this ensemble tells about the experiences of dissociation, revealing otherness as something hidden, undiscovered, and impossible to find. A central motif in the work is a sitting woman, whose face remains obscured by her own hair. The figure is simultaneously hiding and left out. Paradoxically, she hides something to avoid being accepted without managing to avoid acceptance. The ambivalence of this gesture runs through the whole ensemble, which unfolds and communicates the interrelationship between isolation and deprivation. One of the first large ensembles created by Oppermann and exhibited publicly, 'Being different' was first shown in 1972 in the Hamburg Kunsthalle, and was last shown fully assembled in 1986. This presentation of the work at P.S. 1 will not only introduce Oppermann's work to the American public, but also make this important ensemble from her early oeuvre accessible for the first time in thirteen years. The new installation of 'Being different (Why is she so different?' is organized and curated by Ute Vorkoeper and Herbert Hossmann. The exhibition is presented in cooperation with the Goethe-Institute New York / German Cultural Center.

June a compelling exhibition of recent comix from Serbia opens at Amsterdam Gallery Lambiek. [Fifteen] Serbian comix artists use their talents to tell about their everyday lives during wartime. A thought provoking view of the impact of the NATO-bombs seen from the perspective of ordinary Serbian civilians from Belgrado, Novi Sad, Pancevo, Vrsac and Nis. The show must go on is also available for an international audience at the Lambiek website: www.lambiek.net. Among the those collaborating on The show must go on are comix artists of international fame like Aleksandar Zograf ('Dream Watcher') and Zoran Janjetov ('La jeunesse de John Difool, Les Technopres'). The show must go on is an initiative from 'Anti War Action Foudation for Former Yugoslavia' (AWA), a non-profit organization that ever since the civil war in former Yugoslavia started has been organizing financial and moral support for cultural and peace movements in the area. AWA has done so by organizing benifit concerts, festivals, dance parties and exhibitions. One of the central popular media which AWA puts to use to reach its goals is comix. The 'Signed by war' project from 1994, for example, features work from such world class artists like Enki Bilal, Lorenzo Mattotti, Peter Pontiac and Peter Kuper. AWA spokesperson Momir Stocic Moki is available for interviews and additional information.
