Altar al Desamor - Colombia
The project is called Altar al Desamor (The Lost Love Altar in spanish) and is about gather experiences in love through photos, objects and love letters, in a physical shrine built in honor of lost love, broken hearts and any painful situation caused by love.
I'm currently doing this project in Bucaramanga, my hometown, searching objects, experiences and stuff between friends and people I know, but I also have a blog where I explain the project and how people from all over the world can get involved through internet.
The project is mainly in spanish, but I included a description in english and french. Here's the link in english http://altaraldesamor.blogspot.com/p/how-to-participate-in-this-project.html
Thank you in advance,
Irene

CABANA DOS PARODIANTES
It is with great pleasure that I will outline and appeal, which is already available all information in the first Mail Art Call that im organized in partnership with the owner of the historic coffee "Cabana dos Parodiantes " in Salvaterra de Magos, Portugal.
The Theme is "Planet Earth is a large island with a huge ocean around! "
A new EVENT and a GROUP was created on IUOMA site, where you can access all detailed information, or visit the attached link created for this Mail Art Call.
http://cabanamailartproject.blogspot.com/
I would like that the event become a great success, then I am counting on your website divulgation and participation too..., would like on behalf of the organizers (me and Fernando), to thank all those who choose to participate with your Mail Art pieces and for your help.
I attached a picture file where is the Mail Art Call, but anyway i will write here too:
MAIL ART CALL
Artists from this world are invited to submit a ORIGINAL work, subject to the following idea:
THEME: PLANET EARTH IS A LARGE ISLAND WITH A HUGE OCEAN AROUND!
" The purpose of this theme, based on the idea that the planet is a living organism where globalization brings everything and everyone together, and that technology, regardless of its effect, shortens time and space, making communication between peoples, races, cultures and religions easier.
Looking at the map of the world, it is easy to see that all five continents fit almost perfectly, forming one, in fact, in the early days, America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Oceania were a huge land mass (Pangea) and have been, over millions of years, drifting closer together.
Like the "Jangada de Pedra" by Portuguese writer Jose Saramago, which proposed the relocation of Portugal and Spain on the European continent, forming a new Iberian continent, this challenge calls us to the idea of concentrating the 5 continents in one, with one ocean, making us even closer together and consciously reconnecting us with the planet, leaving us to the Gaia Hypothesis, proposed by James Lovelock in the 60's, arguing that the planet is a superorganism, a similar idea already shared by ancient civilizations."
PARTICIPATION: open to all Planet Earth creators
TECHNIQUE: all techniques are allowed, provided that the holders are able to be mailed
FORMAT: max size 15x21cm (5.91x8.27in)
TERMS:

EXHIBITION: the works will be exhibited in the space of "Cabana dos Parodiantes" Salvaterra de Magos, Portugal, starting in October 2011, and will be there one month. It is likely that exhibition will be extended to other public and private places in Portugal.

ART DETOX 2010
DOCUMENTATION / DOCUMENTAZIONE
In the tradition of the Decentralized Networker Congresses, of the Incongruous Meetings and of the Obscure Actions, 2010 saw the international diffusion of a collective open project, that lasted twelve months, aimed at a shared detoxification from the art toxins that oppress our daily life (how many invites to exhibitions, events and presentations do we get every day?).
Hundreds of people in various parts of the world took part in the course of 2010 in ART DETOX therapeutic group meetings, they carried out “Insulation Tests” by visiting art galleries and museums with their head hidden in a paper bag or they practiced “Relaxation Tests” by sticking curative ART DETOX patches on their bodies, by playing water football in a small basin or by “combing dolls”. Are your ARTeries clogged with toxins too?
The final documentation of the ART DETOX 2010 project is finally ready, an illustrated booklet of 32 pages (texts in English and Italian) with inserts and original souvenirs (including the “Art Detoxed” badge created by Gumdesign), plus a multimedia cd-r with an ample selection of texts and images and an ART DETOX EP: five tracks of artherapeutic music exclusively recorded by Rod Summers (Vecdor featuring Korka Helgadóttir), Gina Pritti Tutti al Lago, Ratto Goal, Gianluca Becuzzi and Le Forbici di Manitù.
The cost of a copy of the publication with cd-r, air mail postage included, outside Italy is of € 15,00 or $ 20,00. Send International Postal Money Order (or cash hidden in a envelope) to: Vittore Baroni, via C. Battisti 339, 55049 Viareggio, Italy.
The contents of the documentation will be also available soon online, inside the blog http://artdetox2010.ning.com.
The most active collaborators to the project will receive a special free copy of the documentation.
