This is so cool. If you remember, recently I posted a recap of a collaborative project by Art House Co-op in Georgia where a few thousand people from around the world (artists & non-artists) created art in sketchbooks, sent them in and they exhibition went on tour. I was bummed that I missed the deadline for that neat project!Thankfully, the good folks at the gallery saw my post and tipped me off to a new project - "A Million Little Pictures." I'm so excited! Here is the deal:
They are going to hold the exhibition in the city that has the most participants. How cool is that? I love projects like this one (and their sketchbook project) -it's simple, creative and engaging to almost anyone.During the summer of 2009, one thousand artists from around the world will document their lives in 24 frames using a simple disposable camera with a flash.
On September 25th, 2009, an exhibition housing over 24,000 photographs will be constructed to take you on an adventure through the lives of these thousand artists.We're looking for people with different cultures, ethnicities, geographic locations, and lifestyles. This is for anyone. You do not have to consider yourself an "artist" to participate.
The camera is only $18 - get yours!
