Monumental Statements, against poverty, violence, Aids, racism and environmental destruction.
MOVE FOR LIFE is an art-action by LITTMANN KULTURPROJEKTE, which takes place in public; its fields of action are streets, squares and factory halls. MOVE FOR LIFE leaves the sites originally reserved for art, such as museums, galleries and art halls and is present where people live and work. MOVE FOR LIFE actuates – on trucks, transporters, on the European road network. MOVE FOR LIFE is a socio-political action. MOVE FOR LIFE presents emotional and touching images.
Trucks are a brilliant medium for the spreading of messages created by artists. Trade associations estimate that a truck covers a distance of 250’000 kilometres a year throughout the European road network, thus provoking around 25 million eye-contacts. MOVE FOR LIFE makes use of the exterior of the trucks to present the messages in terms of so-called “Monumental Statements”. The truck becomes a culture-truck, an art-object on wheels.
Famous international artists design these “Monumental Statements” against poverty, violence, Aids, racism and environmental destruction. Trucks designed by Robert Rauschenberg, Jochen Gertz, Danielle Buetti, and Studio Van Lieshout, Franz Burhardt and Xia Zheng are already on the road. A selection of these works will be shown at Art Paris alongside with new ones created by Ben Vautier, Mark Titchner, Damien Deroubaix and Isabel Muñoz.
