Happy Holidays from AIMC
Wishing you Peace and Joy!
The Golden Rule mosaic was a creation of the Co-op Mosaico Artistico Veneziano and was based on a painting by Norman Rockwell. Depicting people of all races, religion, creed and hue, the mosaic imparts the message to "do unto others as you would have them do unto you". Installed at the United Nations to celebrate the organization's 40th anniversary.

Invader
Invader - The invasion of Ravenna
Curator: Marte
Coordinator: Daniele Torcellini
Venue: Planetario di Ravenna, Giardini Pubblici
Supported by: Comune di Ravenna, Assessorato alla Cultura Ravenna2019
Ditta Pirini Giancarlo and with the collaboration of: MAR - Museo d’Arte della Città Planetario di Ravenna.
Beginning on October 11, 2014, the external facade of the Planetarium of Ravenna will host the permanent installation of a 20 square meters mosaic, created by Invader, an internationally known French artist. For the past 15 years, Invader has been filling the streets with Space Invaders, resurrected from the eponymous late-70s arcade game in which pixelated aliens set out to conquer Earth.
Working under the pseudonym of Invader, the artist has taken the idea behind the game and applied it to the real world by letting Space Invaders break out of the screen and onto the walls of the world’s major cities, as mosaic tiles, where each pixel is a tile. Paris, London, New York, Tokyo, Mombasa and Katmandu are some of the “invaded” cities around the world. Now Ravenna, one of the most famous city of the world for its mosaic heritage, is one of them. More: 1, 2

International Exhibition of Mosaic as Contemporary Art
Because of the unusual success of the exhibition in Vienna during the XIV AIMC International Conference, the majority of the artists were convinced to leave their work for another project: Mosaic as Contemporary Art is travelling as a Touring Exhibition. Forty artists from twenty-two nations shall continue to show a variety of expressions of contemporary mosaic.
Current and Next Venues:
- Museo del Fiume in Nazzano from November 12 to December 7, 2014
- Cultural Centre of Terlizzi/Bari from December 12 to January 8, 2015

Artist's Statement
‘There is an invisible creator in the desert - the wind - which forms landscapes of continual change . . . The realisation that nothing in this world is permanent is one which has absorbed my thinking for many years. I use the qualities inherent within my materials of gold and glass to manipulate light and to try to fix for eternity something which I know, no longer exists . . . This is the real meaning and lesson of the desert ...to convince us of the only certainty -death - while telling us that there is only life and perpetual transformation.' Elaine M. Goodwin. 2014
