Graham Greene 110
Invitation to participation in
mail-art project
We would
like to dedicate the project "SPY"
to the personality and creative work of a famous British writer, who made a
significant contribution to the world literature; whose books inspired 42
screen versions; whose heritage includes 26 novels, 4 travel books, a book of
poems, 4 autobiographies, 8 plays, 6 collections of short stories, 4 children’s
books. This writer is Graham
Greene. 2 of October 2014 is his 110th birthday
anniversary.
Thus
within this project we propose to develop in your artworks the theme of
espionage – real and fictional, reflected in mass media, spy fiction, films and
TV series. Famous personages, real secret agents, famous spy plot lines,
scandals, breaking news, connected with this theme, can also be the source of
inspiration.
We hope this theme to be
thought-provoking and interesting.
