Imagine a World without Art

So, there's nothing like blowing my own horn... Or rather blowing my own horn about my Friends... My friends Nicole Ackermann and Dean Barrett made a fabulous and thought provoking little advert/segment of film imagining the world without art.

The snippet is used to promote Assemblage in Newtown Johannesburg. Assemblage promotes young artists in Johannesburg and gives them a place to exhibit their works.

The little film.advert/snippet/PSA is awesome, shot beautifully, flawless editing and great sound. Check it out:

"Assemblage opened the Newtown Artist Run Centre and Studios (NewARC), in Johannesburg in April 2012. The NewARC offers studio spaces and support facilities for visual artists and creatives. 'Make Art Happen' is a fundraising initiative to keep the NewARC studios open for a year. Please go to www.makearthappen.co.za to donate anything as small as R100 and spread the word!
