WIRE WATER
"The thread of water" is the metaphor of a linear address which runs uninterrupted, clear and thin, in which artists who adhere to the themes promoted by the Eco-art NWart (Neworld Association), gave life to confront on an issue such as water, laden with cultural meanings, symbolic, economic and lack of serious critical eco-social global.
Water has always been essential commodity and vital natural resource to which all communities and individuals have the right to have free access but has become a valuable commodity to sell and from which to derive substantial profits. In most countries, the water system is under the control of corporations like Suez, Veolia, Vivendi, RWE-Thames, Danone, Nestle, Pepsi Cola and Coca Cola, which in turn sub-participation of many leading local companies. Also in Italy a law passed in parliament in 2009, placing the trust disposes of the governance, provides water and other public utilities in private hands or owned by a majority of private capital.
citizens were dispossessed of a shared public benefit private enterprise pursuing maximum profits by increasing arbitrariariamente rates (as has already occurred in several municipalities) and by allocating the minimum investment in infrastructure maintenance.
For this reason a composite transverse movement of associations, citizen committees, organizations, parties and local governments have found themselves united in the Italian Forum of movements for the water with the intent to promote a referendum to ripubblicizzazione water. In just three months were collected and stored by the Supreme 1,400,000 signatures to call a referendum should be held in spring 2011.
Let's talk about 'fuel consumption and wastage of water they are endangering their availability. The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), said in a study presented in London in September 2008 to obtain 1 kg of corn requires 900 gallons of water per 1 kg of rice, 3,000 liters for a kg of chicken 3900 liters per 1 kg of pork and 4,900 liters per 1 kg of beef, 15,500 liters of water. For a liter of Pepsi are 9 liters of process water.
forecasts regarding the future of water in the world are alarming (alarmist and not, as skeptics claim against or beneficiaries of the business). In 2025 60% of the population will live in a situation of water stress. 1 billion people must walk three hours to have access to water. In 2025, 2 billion and 700 million people live with water scarcity. 20% of the population currently has access to water resources problems. Contaminated water kills 15 million children a year. Everyone now knows that bottled water that has no cost and production cost due solely to bottling and advertising business is a billion-billion euro and PET bottles pile up as waste expensive to dispose of pollutants.
invited artists from NWart want to make a contribution to the current year for the public good by participating in water-action art ensemble "The thread of water" paintings, sculpture, photography, video art, live-performance, art conceptual form an event traveling about water and its meanings. Through the varied language and techniques of the visual arts is realized an additional focus on the issue in all its facets including the cynical criticism of the vision to consider water a commodity traded on the exchange.
The deep symbolic value of water is lost in the mists of time. It supports all the theories of the birth of life, the implications of geological, historical, political and scientific development of human civilization and technology.
What were and how many continue to be the values \u200b\u200bof the water, its impact on the future of the planet and humanity? The trickle of water spend many continuous images of the universe ...

Primordial elements along with fire, air and earth (air, metal and wood in Eastern traditions). Medium ritual of initiation into the spiritual life for its sense of rebirth and purification.

Groundwater polluted by chemicals (POPs). Bacterial contamination of water supplies. Spills and illegal discharges of waste water to an accident or criminal behavior. The thread of water
would help to awaken the consciences of people, sending messages through the works of thought waves at high frequency to cause revulsion against human stupidity and greed, and awaken love of harmony and beauty of nature. This will ensure that the history of water does not run out and can continue to sustain life on the planet.
