Artwork exhibited by Krisztina Asztalos from Urban series. No Code V., 2013. 50 X 70 cm
acrylic and silver and gold on canvas
The artwork's subtitle is Urban Kids.
This painting is a quite sarcastic and humorous piece depicting Y generation using technology very early, like "chained to" laptops, tablets,smart phones and also depicting fashion patterns and elements of child clothes.Although using technology in harmonious way can be a very useful and succesful tool for education of children from primary school to higher education.
"The planned exhibition is NOT about RELIGION! It is about the 'Declaration of Human Rights" which is INTERNATIONAL LAW - btw: also signed by most of the islamic countries!!! But even in those countries that signed the declaration, the human rights of women and children are still being severely disregarded. And that's what WE (the MIRCA ART Group) focus on - WITHIN the Declaration of Human Rights - in the exhibition: The Human Rights of women and children."

Opinion by Mirca member Hego and main concept of exhibit:
The planned exhibition is NOT about RELIGION! It is about the 'Declaration of Human Rights" which is INTERNATIONAL LAW - btw: also signed by most of the islamic countries!!! But even in those countries that signed the declaration, the human rights of women and children are still being severely disregarded. And that's what WE (the MIRCA ART Group) focus on - WITHIN the Declaration of Human Rights - in the exhibition: The Human Rights of women and children.
In 1985 there were two UN - Conventions a) on Eliminiation of Discrimination Against Women (this convention bans discrimination against women) and b) the Convention on the Rights of the Child (this convention bans discrimination against children and provides for special protection and rights appropriate to minors.). So we'll continue a "tradition" started by the UN.
The profit from the sales will be donated to a foundation. I suggested the Malala foundation. Malala could as well be Jewish, Buddhist, Christian or whatever. Since she's got the Peace Noble Prize she's kind of a symbol and a well regarded, highly respected person taking action for the rights of women and children. Mentioning that the profits from our sales will be donated to her foundation will draw some attention to the MIRCA TOUR FOR HUMAN RIGHTS - exhibition in Galary Lyktan, Skogard, Sweden. Thanks once again for your engagement and for the invitation, Stefan! Best always, HEGO
