Exhibition in Buenos Aires with theme: Organic, healthy and natural life/food

Exhibition in Buenos Aires . Theme: "Organic, healthy and natural life/food"
Dear Everybody:
I invite you to take part in an exhibition of cartoons about organic natural life and organic and healthy food.
The City Hall of San Isidro, the town where I live, lends me the walls of an exhibition of organic grocers and natural foods and cosmetics.
There will be no catalogue, not awards, not diplomas. Only your presence in San Isidro, Buenos Aires through your works.
The place is a 300 years old house in a very touristic colonial town, in front of the Gothic Cathedral where my parents got married and I was baptized.
I only may send you a lot of thanks, press clipping and photos of the exhibition.
THE IMPORTANT THING ABOUT THIS IS that I presented a plan of making a Museum of Humor here.
I told the Culture Secretary´s people that I may donate thousand of catalogues, original cartoons and be in charge of a permanent and rotating international exhibition if they give me the place. And they want to see, in this weekend of organic foods, if that could be possible... and if that attracts the public! You don´t have to work extra: you may send old works, related with ecology or nature, by email to me.
The exhibition is on 18th April, please send them well before that date. And consider this is Argentina, where everybody promises and then it´s delayed, and later "it couldn´t be done because of lack of budget, lack of place, etc, etc"...
But I believe in miracles!
THANK YOU, let´s hope the Museum of Humor in San Isidro will come a reality.
Best regards,
Ana von Rebeur anavon@hotmail.com

2nd Pátio Brasil International Showroom on Environmental Humor

2nd Pátio Brasil International Showroom on Environmental Humor – Topic: Urban Pollution
1 – THE TOPIC
Environmental preservation has now become one of the world’s greatest concerns. Urban pollution is the result of population agglomeration and incorrect human attitudes which have been progressively degrading planet Earth.
Millions of cars in the streets have contributed to air pollution through exhaust gas emissions which lead to an increase in global temperature, respiratory diseases and serious damage to our fauna and flora.
Waste generated in cities is not adequately collected, resulting in countless outdoor waste sites that emit gases, contaminate the soil and attract disease-transmitting animals. The lack of basic sanitation leads to tons of garbage being dumped in waterways, resulting in floods and landslides during rainy seasons.
Visual and noise pollution are also serious contributors to urban pollution. Signs, billboards, banners and different types of ads clutter the urban landscape and fail to respect common sense and government decrees. Noise pollution, which causes grief to some of the locals, is above tolerable noise levels as a result of the increasing number of sound cars, building construction sites and heavy traffic.
