The 6th annual ACT ART event theme DYING FOR IT! Address’s what’s wrong with the world today. For example negative moral or ethical judgments, cruel, unjust and selfish human behaviour, war and diseases like Cancer and Aids.

Poverty, famine and global warming caused by human actions, CCTV, censorship, celebrity culture, and the whole media circus that not only provides zero privacy to today’s people in the main stream public eye such as Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears, but also play a part in early loss of lives notably Princess Diana, Anna Nicole Smith and so on. Even Heath Leger who although he was not hounded by the press as such, his death was made global news partly because of his feelings about media invasion and his issues he had dealing with it which contributed to his early departure.

ACT ART MISSION:

ACT ART is an international platform for artists working in all disciplines including performance –live art – film –video - installation - site specific - painting, drawing, and photography.

ACT ART provides a testing ground for new experimental - radical - confrontational and non-mainstream work made by artists from different cultural backgrounds and genders and united by an interest in the body in the broadest sense.

ACT ART - launched in 2003 in an attempt to create an art/ club event that celebrates difference and aims to programme work in alternative spaces away from the institutional art world/ gallery system - fusing art practice - sub cultures and the underground club scene.
