THE DESERT GENERATION

 

40 Years of Occupation, 1967-2007

 

Israeli and Palestinian Artists against the Occupation and for a Just Peace 

 

On Tuesday, June 5, 2007, the 40th anniversary of the 1967 War, Israeli and Palestinian artists who oppose the occupation and continue to call for its immediate and peaceful end, will open a joint exhibition at the Artists House, Jerusalem.

 

Two weeks after the opening in Jerusalem, the exhibition will move to Ha'Kibbutz Art Gallery, Tel Aviv.

 

Artists who identify with this call are invited to participate in the joint exhibition and to send an image by e-mail, to the following address: desert.generation at gmail.com

The image should be in jpg format, 300dpi resolution, for color-printing in size A4. Please save the file under artist's name in English, surname before first name, and also put this information in the subject field of your e-mail: artist's name in English, surname before first name. All relevant information for display, such as name of artist and name of work, should be included in the image, as the images will be printed and exhibited as received, without labels or frames.

 

Deadline for submission of images: May 15, 2007

 

The exhibition is an artists' initiative, with no affiliation to political movements.

 

This is an open invitation to participate in the exhibition, chain letter style.

 

To assure our call for the end of the occupation is heard loud and far, please forward this letter to as many colleagues as possible, across the country and the globe.



Best regards
