Progressive Art - Artwork in Progress

Art is often an open platform for freedom of speech, even in societies where that freedom is restricted. This makes art an effective tool for exposing social issues.
For artists from different areas and cultures all over the world, this is the beginning of a new direction in communicative art working as group in art exchange.
The aim is to encourage more communication, respect, and acceptance by bringing all cultures together, through different works of artistic expression and character.
Artistic expression is giving self respect and belief in the future.

Comics Street Painting for Childrens in Brasil

Barbara Streiff, international artist from Switzerland, is the curator of this project. Bahia Artist Jacy Schrepfer by UNICEF is kindly helping with the organisation of the project in Brazil. For the past 20 years, Barbara Streiff has been working as an art teacher with children and students in art and cultural centres all over the world: Switzerland, Italy, New York, Berlin, Cyprus, Asia – just to name a few. Her art courses are recognised by the University of Zurich and institutions in Cyprus, Italy and New York.

Bahian artist Josy Schrepfer and Barbara Streiff have conceived this project of art workshops, happenings and street-artwork in Bahia as a communicative art exchange. The artists will go into the streets and public places to work and paint directly with streetchildren, teaching them art through comics. The children will be given assistance (when requested) in painting stories from their daily lives, the wishes and dreams of people today, the fairy tales of their country, or the culture and life in Bahia, for example.
- Street painting with children in public places - comics of life painting -

All children and people from the streets, will be invited to participate in this project. Donations from tourists and visitors viewing the art action will be used for materials and will go directly to support the children who are taking part in the project. Art exchange will take place wherever the children paint modern Brazilian culture in comics.

ARTISTS FROM SWISS ALPS REGION GLARUS AT BROADWAY IN NYC

THE FORGOTTEN CHILDREN OF ART

75 years of art history visits NYC. The project Swiss Artists From Glarus will show at Gallery Abraham Lubelski 450/473 Broadway, March 6-17, 2001.
The more than 20 artists all live and work in the Swiss mountain valley of Glarus. Last year they teamed up to do a valley-wide exhibition on eight historical sites throughout their mountain Canton. Quite a number of the participating artists are former students and gallery artists of Glarus' Art School Center, Fly Gallery, headed by artist Barbara Streiff in the gods of the old railway station in CH-8750 Glarus in Switzerland.
The NYC exhibit is conceived and organized by the Head of the Glarus Art School Center and Fly Gallery, Barbara Streiff. For the last ten years, she has been working in the cultural heart of Glarus, as artist, sculptor, art teacher, and curator of socio-interactive exhibitions recognized throughout Europe. A major concern is the socio-cultural animation of art - the kind of Vernetzung or Verflechtung that also marks her sculptural work. The Vernetzung/Verflechtung sculptures are now internationally known as AÏON or primae geometrie sculptures. In 1999, Streiff was invited to her AÏON work at the Abraham Lubelski Gallery. Out of this contact the idea of a joint visit in the same gallery emerged.
Curation by Barbara Streiff

The future of The Forgotten Children of Art from Glarus may not be forgotten, thanks to the chance given them by Abraham Lubelski's invitation to host their work in his international gallery space on 450/473 Broadway, NYC, March 6-17, 2001.
