One year ago last March, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck Japan. It claimed the lives of more than 15,000 people, triggered nuclear accidents and moved earth on its axis. Just 3 months before it was even a seismic blip, 7 artists journeyed from Japan to San Francisco to be part of an art event called LOVE MOVEMENT. Shin Tanaka and Nao Shimojo conceived of the show, I curated it, and Cooper attended it. When the Japanese artists had to go home, we'd all become good friends. Nobody knew they were returning to one of the biggest natural disasters in history...

This March, we're back, and we're covering the walls of Kokoro Studio with art by kids and the grownups who love them. The theme of EARTH MOVEMENT is nature's powerful forces: sometimes awesome and sometimes devastating. There are many ways the earth moves: it spins, it shines, it shakes, it quakes... How does the earth move YOU?

EARTH MOVEMENT will take place at Kokoro Studio in San Francisco, running for 3 weeks.

EARTH MOVEMENT:

Thursday, March 1st:

Preview opening...

*******************

SATURDAY, MARCH 3rd:

********************

Earth Movement is working with the Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Northern California to donate 20% of the show's proceeds to the ongoing relief effort in Japan.

We hope you'll join us for this great show supporting a great cause!

Sincerely,

Jeremy Brautman (age 34) and Super Cooper Berella (age 12)
