Book project, contest, art show “A Fine Art Journey”

Posted on by

The book A Fine Art Journey is based on our test project “Touring the World Through Art” (link to the previous events of “Touring the World through Art”). The older test project has been expanded and continues under the new book title!

The book will be printed in both soft- and hardcover versions. The artist can then choose what he or she prefers. It is, above all, the poetic context that sets our art books apart from others. This art book will be a gift book with travel-inspired poems and an entertaining preface. The book and the numerous awards are powerful PR tools. All winners received a German blog post as a gift (see below).

What does “Enter into Art – LOUNGE” mean?

The “Enter into Art – LOUNGE 2” includes our special gift book series for large artworks. More information about the Enter into Art-book series.

Book presentation with art show

A stroke of luck and a surprise for the participating artists was the four-week presentation in the Townhall Gallery of Cologne-Kalk in March 2020. We could announce the book there and introduce the winners. All pictures of the book were displayed by an exclusive on-screen presentation, which was integrated in our exhibition with small-format pictures. More information you can find here:

On-screen presentation
Film with 98 larger pictures
On-screen: David Whitfield + award and book presentation

In addition, a book presentation will take place in the Studio Gallery “Apollinaire” in Bonn-Königswinter after the book has been published.
