2010 International Fine Art: Five leading contemporary artists are being invited from each of the 32 countries that will qualify for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa to participate in this project. Each artist is being invited to interpret the same theme (inspired by Africa and the 2010 FIFA World Cup) in the style of their choice, and from each original image a series of a further 210 (to link to the year – 2010) archival pigment ink prints on cotton paper will be produced.Each of these prints will then be numbered, labelled as Official Licensed Products of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, signed in original by the artist, and sold. The collection will be extremely exclusive – with only five originals and a total of 1050 prints available from each of the 32 participating countries.
In cooperation withgallery partners this collection willbe launched in early 2010 through 32 simultaneous global exhibitions in leading art cities around the world, accompanied by a major global marketing and media campaign."
