Description
Organized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Geneva Liaison Office, in collaboration with the Non-profit Organisation CITYarts.
The UNESCO Geneva Liaison Office, in collaboration with the non-profit organization CITYarts, presents the exhibition CITYarts Pieces for Peace. This display of works is one of the main programs of CITYarts, consisting of approximately 300 original artworks made by youth from around the world. The pieces are part of a wider global online exhibition, which to date has received over than 6,000 artworks from approximately 73 countries.
The artworks have inspired the creation of mosaic “Peace Walls”, with five locations presently around the world, with more being planned. CITYarts also organizes Pieces for Peace workshops, which aim to encourage youth to consider what peace looks like to them and to express their ideas through art, which are then added to the online exhibition.
The exhibition aims to encourage youth around the world to become ambassadors for peace, and to enrich a global dialogue around peace, and also gives an opportunity for youth to gain new art skills and communicate through the visual language.
U.N. Ambassadors are asked to encourage the youth in their countries to join this CITYarts program "Young Minds Build Bridges" at www.cityarts.org
The exhibition will be on display at the Salle des pas perdus, A Building, 3rd Floor - Door 14. From 5 to 21 December 2017.
