25 Above Water
Thanks to those of you who wrote in to post about the online art sale/exhibition going on at 25abovewater.com. Each artist created 12 limited edition posters to be sold online in an effort to raise money for American Red Cross, 10 posters for sale, 1 poster for the traveling exhibition and 1 poster for the artist’s personal collection. Head on over, browse the gallery, (get em while you can!) there is some really great work up for grabs.

As the organizer and curator of 25 Above Water I am elated that the design community is taking the necessary actions to help those in need.
I am also proud of the 25 participating artists for their labor of love.
To view the artwork on the 25 website is great but to see, feel, and appreciate each poster in its final size and medium is remarkable.
To share that experience with a wider art audience 25 Above Water is planning a traveling exhibition in 2006. If you are a museum or gallery director and want to the exhibition to grace your walls please contact me at info@25abovewater.com
You don’t have to wait for the exhibition to view the final posters. You can own a limited edition poster, signed and numbered by the artist. Proceeds go to the American Red Cross.
My hope is for, us, the creative community to embrace the role of “Designer as Activist.” To get involve in on-going causes and not just react to tragic disasters.
Thank you for your support!
