*The Mondriaan Foundation would like to bring this initiative to your

*ARTBOMB - JOIN THE GROWING INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY IN AN ACTION TO SAVE THE
ARTS*****

 ****

Dear art friend, ****

Express the value of art! Show your support for culture!****

* *****

****

On *Friday the 24th June at noon *local time, we need you to join this
initiative in shrouding art locations across the world incoloured smoke.
 This visual act will be a sign of resistance against the growing disdain
for the arts within societies and governments worldwide, and a sign of
support for colleagues who face major cutbacks. Now is the time to act to
show your appreciation and the necessity of the arts!****

ARTBOMB is a peaceful art intervention initiated in The Netherlands. The
Dutch Government is about to cut 40% of all cultural funding. This will
result in the disappearance of a multitude of organizations that excel
internationally in their field. This loss will be felt not only by the Dutch
public but by the international community.****

One signal, one moment, one act to show support. You can contribute visual
ammunition against the disproportionate cuts to the arts budget. This
visible intervention will rise up around the world where people value the
arts and want to express their support for artists and cultural
organizations.****

Everybody who joins the ARTBOMB intervention will become part of this chain
reaction and is invited to upload the photos and films of their own
intervention to the website www.artbomb.nl as a token of solidarity and a
symbol of strength.****
