World Peace for Video Art - New work by ERNEST OLOVE.

WORLD PEACE FOR VIDEO ART
OPENING FRIDAY 1 November 6pm
1 November 22 December 2008

The decision to exhibit the artwork of Ernest Olove could be considered a brave move. This self-proclaimed artist, social activist, libertine and trend oracle from Kupa Piti has no formal training in art, and is from all accounts a misanthrope with a particular contempt for the art world. The only reason that we became aware of him was that he identified boxcopy (from our website), as the type of radical future of art spaces that he believed should be allowed to exhibit his vision for world peace. And to our surprise when we finally saw his vision we also came to believe that what he proposed was actually possible, that this noble concept of a world without war could be a real possibility.So finally we felt obliged to share his visionary concept, to allow everyone to rejoice in the simplicity, the elegance of that vision to embrace World Peace for Video Art. This truly is Art for the new millennium.
