Earth Day with Paul Kostabi and Utrecht Art Supplies

The event was PiecexPeace Live ‘08. The place was Central Park NYC and the occasion was Earth Day.

Thousands came and went painted and watched. Paul Kostabi and friends organized an event with music, speeches and artwork all entwined together to send the word out about Earth Day. We donatedĀ  large canvases that were cut up into tiny 6×6 pieces and given out to be painted on with eco-friendly paints. Each piece was sewn together to make a largerĀ  500 foot painting to be unveiled at Central Parks Summer stage the following ay. The mural will be the largest and longest green mural all hand painted by total strangers. Soon the mural will have its home at one of our fine museums here in NYC. Details on that coming soon.
