Gheoart,
born in december 2003, is founded by the italian artist Luvit and his daughters Elda and
Simona who have Univrsity degrees in Sociology and Psicology and who are
organizing events. The manifesto which is the source of ispiration of
the whole artistic movement has been published in the month of december
2003 in the Italian magazine "Segni D'Arte" . Gheoart
is a movement, fed by all the artists who want to stimolate the interest
persons to pay attention to the subjects and the arguments of the movement.
Gheoart want to grow
The
use of this website is gratuated to all the artists who would like to
publish their works of art (max. 6) which have to be coherent with the
subjects of the movement.Their publications contribute to the expansion of
the movement and of the website and the formation of a permanent
exhibition that everyone can visite with a simple mouse click and that
could become one of the biggest exhibitions of the world. The visit of
this exhibition, based on subjects of global interest and representing
fundamental values of the movement, can be a further and indispensable
impulse for the active participation in the movement. If you want to
publish one or more of your works of art, the only thing you have to do
ist to send an email to Gheoart. In your mail you should give some
information about yourself, the artist, and specify the technique(s), the
material(s), the dimension(s) of your picture(s).The works of art,
published on the Gheoart website, remain in the property of the artists.
The Gheoart site is a no profit.Your
works will be published 48 hours after receiving Your mail.The
subscription and publications for those who take spontaneously part in our
movement are absolutely free.
THE
GHEOART
The
Gheoart movement wants to grow and become a world - wide movement of
artists of all kinds painters, sculptors, writers, musicians and so on.
Everyone can contribute with its own creations, the only thing that is to
consider is, that they' re focused on the preservation of our home Earth
in which we are living day by day and that is slowly fading away towards
the consequent unthinkable configurations. The human - being is the
largest consumer of well - being. Even cultures which are always in the
stage of development want on the whole to compare themselves with the
developed cultures and ask for wealth and well being. This trend is
confirmed by the phenomenon of migration. All the antiglobalization
movements fight in the end only for a better distribution of goods and
wealth. Wealth represents the highest demand of man. All living forms in
the world satisfy their requests of energy (not for the collective well -
being, but in order to survive in a logic of equilibrium that mother
nature is constantly producing and offering in fascinating criterions that
man doesn' t respect. The human - being produces with a productive logic
that tends to satisfy his never - ending. It’s like a spiral without an
end. It' s a spontaneous reaction to ask ourselves if there is any
possibility to use some kind of strategy? The answer is no! It' s like a
train without brakes which hits an obstacle. The conductor is aware of it
but he can' t do anything about it. The inevitable remains inevitable. The
only possible strategy is to interfere with the productive circles of
wealth in produce wealth which respects our mother Home In the hope that
it won' tbe influenced by catastrophes like biochemical or nuclear break
-outs, we can interfere in "stopping the train" in different
ways.We can, for example, substitute a part of the polluted energy with
clean energy: all the cars that burn combustibles that pollute the
environment could be replaced by cars with hydrogen motors which are clean
and harmless. These technologies have just been put into circulation but
they have even been already removed by people with personal interests One
of the first important steps could be to heat our houses and offices with
clean energy. But unfortunately this isn' t easy to realize because of
people who want to keep their status quo. All politicians from the first
presidents up to congressmen are not interested in the well - being of
man, but in maintaining their power. Consequently we can't expect that
anything will be changed by them. It' s like talking to rocks. Everybody
is still waiting for a politician able to better our live. In fact, the
European Union has been created in order to satisfy more people. If there
is more request than there will be even more competition. We have to
condition the consumer of well - being to use this possibility. It' s
possible to give birth or awake this conscience which is necessary for a
change of the actual tendencies. We shouldn' t forget that in civil
societies and normal democracies the congressmen and members of the
parliament are chosen by us and so we can control and influence the
situation. We have to wake up the consumers of well - being up to their
laziness - the consequence of living in a world of wealth - and to
convince them that they have change the trends. In order to change the
trends, we have to force the politicians to work within the rules of a
World Constitution written by wise men, obviously “superpartes”, and
to collaborate in a World Parliament where esclusevely scientists and
humanists will focus on the preservation of our Home the Earth. The simple
and good man will be the only one who wants the realization of this
project, because it represents the only real way of protection for himself
and for his future generations. His conscience isn't formed yet. The heat
of the summer 2003, the 15000 elderly persons that died in France and
Italy, are welcomed by the politicians, because now they don't have to pay
15.000 pensions less than foreseen. However, the public opinion has been
deeply touched and it is in this and in other parts of the society in
which Gheoart wants to work and to grow. The artists' sensibility is able
to understand and transform these events of the contemporary world. Free
of any compromise, they' re keepers of universal values that have set
roots in the myth and that represent one of the possible ways to take, in
order to awake the consciousness. A world wide movement at which the
majority of artists will take part with their versatile artistic languages,
supported and amplyfied by ecological organizations and by the mass media.
Not able to ignore the phenomenon, their creations will contribute to the
defense of our home and of Ecologic Democracy, recovering the
consciousness of the World Parliament. The World Constitution is a really
trendy inversion.

Here
is the Earth from contamination, from China to Pianura Padana
Giovanni Caprara and Guido Visconti
Corriere della Sera, Thursday, October 14, 2004
All alone in a pollution of the planet. An impressive photo. Many stains
red fire: it is there that the Earth is sick. And the disease coincides
with the most industrialized regions of the world. There is also the
Pianura Padana. It is no surprise, we knew for some time. Industrial
development, population growth, the increasingly intensive use of vehicles
that generate gas in the end, inexorably deteriorating. The photograph
collected by Envisat satellite of the European Space Agency shows us the
distribution and concentration of nitrogen dioxide according to an average
value out of the continuous observation conducted in the last two winter
seasons and during the summer.
This gas is generated in combustion processes and therefore result from
industrial activities, from car engines, from the central producing energy.
But there is also a natural because it is also generated by the falling of
a thunderbolt. The largest concentrations of carbon dioxide are on the Po
Valley, in northern Europe, on the east coast of the United States, South
Africa, and extended in the Asian region which includes, besides the China
Japan and Korea. All areas of human development is increasingly intense.
But then there are the aggravating factors.
The area of northern Italy is more vulnerable because of geography, a
movement of the winds causing difficult as a result of stagnation inputs.
Milan does not produce more pollutants in a city like Hamburg, however,
may benefit from a more favorable air circulation. With us there is an
accumulation that aggravates the situation. The stagnant air in the valley
of the Po contributes and enhances the values of so as to be ten times
higher than those that have the same sources, but a more normal air
traffic.
In other places on the planet, the situation is in some respects even more
serious as the satellite photograph of the European shows. Throughout the
Asian area is constantly covered with a huge "black cloud" that
increasingly extends its tentacles to other countries. This is because
China is a country that more than others is still in coal using its many
and rich mines. But for the time being the "great empire" is
committed to produce and develop and there are few controls on trying to
limit it. And that is why we talk more and more intensely the need for
international legislation that establishes limits on the distribution of
pollutants.
The United States, especially along the west coast, are increasingly
concerned about the "black cloud" in Asia because it is
traveling and is spreading in several directions. And even on the ocean
were photographed densification of particles that end up degrading the air
of countries very far from the place of origin. And this is a problem
because the pollution limits of a nation cease to be overcome not by its
own activities, but for the arrival of foreign particles from the sky.
To control this phenomenon are necessary investigations and inquiries that
do not yet exist or are so restricted. Along the East Coast of the United
States, universities have formed a consortium and built a network of
detection to better assess the presence of the substances involved and how
they are moving and changing weather of the place. So that now you start
talking about chemical predictions regarding the climate.
Meanwhile, to counter this problem we must act on the control of reducing
harmful emissions. There is no other way. The map is filled with the
observation space clearly demonstrates that the more developed areas of
the Earth suffer all the same bad environment. It all must be convinced of
the need to find an effective remedy, beyond the many words unnecessary
costs in periodic meetings worldwide.
EUROPE
The nitrogen dioxide photographed by satellite Envisat on the Po Valley
and other industrial regions of Europe have common origins related to the
products of combustion from thermal power, heating, industrial activities
and traffic. But the intensity on the Po Valley is derived from an
environmental situation is very different: here the weather is stagnant
due to nature of comparison with other European regions, and this causes a
worsening of the pollutants that persist for longer.
ASIA
On Asia, the cloud of pollutant nitrogen dioxide reaches a vast expanse
that involves China, Japan and Korea. Apart from common sources, China has
allied with the aggravating circumstance of being the country with the
increased use of coal having a substantial mines. Then you add a heavy
contribution of sulfur dioxide. The Chinese fear cloud to the U.S. because
the winds carry the substances in heaven Americans.
AFRICA
South Africa, as regards air pollution, suffers the same problems in
Europe or the United States. The nitrogen dioxide is the result of
industrial production and transport. Were also observed clouds of ocean
pollutants but these are derived from the carriage performed by the winds.
In particular it was found that carbon monoxide, a substance that resists
more of the atmosphere.
NORTH AMERICA
Here are particularly disadvantaged areas of East Coast where it is
distributed to more intensive population. So traffic, heating and
industrial activities are the protagonists. Universities in those regions
have formed a consortium which has built a network of detection in order
to make "chemical predictions about the texture and movement of
pollutants in various phases of the year.
This
is our land lit up at night: a barrel of oil (159 liters) is 1650 Kwh
..... you do the bill!
What is not considered as a basic phenomenon is the speed with which you experience the phenomena "anomalous", while we focus on the intensity of the phenomena themselves. The intensity is a consequence of climate change and the geographical shift of intensity confirms the rapid changes in the overall picture.
Due to the nature of time changes, as we measure it, have always been very long: the contraction of these times is another pole on which it would be interesting to discuss. Catastrophism or denial are human emphasis arising from fear or denial of rational fear. Global warming has always alternating with ice ages, never times so fast, so the cause of man is not excluded.
The alternate theories for or against on the basis of knowledge that different cultures offer without considering the scientific and cultural gap that still persists. We still know very little, even though it appears much of the phenomena related to the balance of nature. And 'the rapidity of change that must form the table of
ratings.
