THE MANIFESTO

3. Each form of expression can inspire others: our aim is their INTEGRATION
4. From the integration of   POETRY and FIGURATIVE ART,  reciprocally encouraged, a NEW  RICH AND COMPLETE FORM OF ART can originate
5. The movement is open to artists and writers  coming from different geographical areas and cultural backgrounds
6. The INTER-ACTION of these artists and writers can improve the understanding and the respect of the others
7. We are in favour of a collaboration which can take place  via TRADITIONAL MEDIA or via the INTERNET
8. NEW TECHNOLOGIES will be preferred in the exchange of  creative ideas
9. We want to fight apathy, banality, superficiality and to support activity, imagination, originality and research

 “UNDOUBTEDLY, IF AN IMAGE CAN EMBODY WORDS, WORDS CAN GIVE THE SILENT IMAGE A VOICE.

 THE WORLD OF IMMAGINE&POESIA EXPANDS THE MEANING OF THE WORDS AND CELEBRATES THE IMAGE TO GIVE THEM, TOGETHER, A NEW SIGNIFICANCE”

ADEL GORGY, Long Island, New York

 

“AS AN ARTIST I KNOW THAT PAINTINGS CAN SPEAK VOLUMES, JUST AS THE WRITTEN OR SPOKEN WORD CAN CONJUR A MIRIAD OF IMAGES OR SENSATIONS, UNLOCKING CREATIVITY IN BOTH ARTISTIC ENDEAVOURS”

HAZEL CASHMORE, Caithness, Scotland,  UK

 

“THE WHOLE CONCEPT IS A WONDERFUL AND NOVEL IDEA OF PRESENTING SUCH INSPIRING WORKS OF ART AND POETRY TOGETHER”

DORANNE ALDEN, Malta
