Passion for Freedom is the groundbreaking London arts festival that celebrates freedom of expression through the arts. With the launch of this commemorative
book, Passion for Freedom is coming to the United States for the first time.
“The festival works now as an indicator for the level of freedom on a given continent, nation or even city. At our exhibition you will see what is happening in Venezuela, China, Pakistan, England or Poland and we are succeeding in removing the veil from these places. It seems anyone who limits freedom inevitably faces an artist’s brush or singers verse, tyrants and great artistic movements go hand in hand.
As Picasso said, “No painting is made to decorate apartments, it is an offensive and defensive weapon against the enemy.”
Camilla Forest, Founder of Passion for Freedom
For 10 years the festival has shown works from over 600 artists representing 55 countries. Their art book of the same name showcases works from artists featured in the festival including, Mimsy, Ai Wei Wei, Malala, Jafar Panahi, Matt Gee, and many others. This important book celebrates the artist’s voice in the enduring, worldwide struggle for freedom.
“The festival has a simple mission – which is to display the work of artists who are thinking seriously about freedom, what it means and how you preserve it. Passion for Freedom celebrates the people who not only do it, but who mean it.” Douglas Murray Journalist, broadcaster and best selling author
