I. CETATEA DE GAND - Scrieri din Tinerete

Cetatile de cand lumea se construiesc din piatra, mortar, otel. Adica elemente neinsufletite. Doar Mesterul Manole a reusit sa construiasca o cetate vie, ingropand in zidirea inerta o parte a « sufletului » sau creator.Brasovul, identificat de scriitori drept « un margaritar al Transilvaniei » a fost zidit de stramosii nostri, romani, germani, maghiari, dupa aceasta reteta clasica, dar, intotdeauna, a avut in structura o flacara vie, un suflet nepereche. Stramosii n-au uitat sa toarne in mortar gandurile lor arzatoare care izbucnesc ca niste torte de aur din sufletele lor vii, vesnic tinere si vesnic surpinzatoare.

Asa s-a nascut acesta Cetate de Gand a Romanilor care ne surprinde mereu prin prospetime, creativitate si originalitate.Dar, mai ales prin capacitatea de a sustine visul cotidian al Omului Liber, lipsit de servituti, vesnic tanar si dornic sa afirme prin prezenta sa idealul aproape supraomenesc de a crea valori materiale si mai ales spirituale, traind in Pace si Intelegere cu vecinii, intuind o Lume mai buna.

Acest Gand, vesnic tanar, m-a inspirat sa creiez aceasta carte pe care o dedic brasovenilor, cetatenilor Romaniei si nu numai lor.

As fi fericit, daca concetatenii mei ar lua parte, Luni 19 martie 2007, orele 16, la Casa Baiulescu din Brasov la lansarea acestei carti de tinerete, intr-un oras care, in ciuda intemperiilor, ramane mereu Tanar.

AUTORUL

STRADA SFORII

Strada desirată din adanc,

Pusa- n calea trecatorilor grabiti,

Sa le lege spada de oblanc,

Si privirea pururi de parinti.

II. EURO – ASIA SILK HIGHWAY

Drumul Matasii, un drum fabulos, deschis de exploratori indrazneti si destInat sa uneasca continente, afaceri si oameni aflati la distante apreciabile. In ERA Internetului, CAND DISTANTELE SE SCURTEAZA PE ZI CE TRECE, ne-am propus sa reconstituim acest drum prin Educatie, Stiinta si Cultura construind o Magistrala Virtuala cu punct de plecare din Italia si cu reflexe extracontinentale in metropole ca Shanghai, Tokio, New Delhi,etc.

WORLD CHILDREN’S FESTIVAL
Washington DC - June 22-25, 2007

The world's largest celebration of children's talents and imagination - the World Children's Festival - will showcase children's creativity, equip them with communication and collaboration skills, and promote mutual respct and trust for the next generation of global leaders.

The World Children's Festival will affirm a vision of hope and foster a sense of common interests and values.

The Festival culminates the ICAF's third Arts Olympiad*, in which more than three million children in about 100 countries participated. Supported by free lesson plans and implemented by the ICAF and its country partners, child artists ages 8 to 12 produced produced paintings and digital art on the theme “My Favorite Sport” to celebrate the artist-athlete ideal of a creative mind and healthy body.

During the Festival, winners of Arts Olympiad competitions will represent their overseas countries and U.S. States and Territories through peer-bonding and cultural exchange. Children performance groups from around the world will join the visual artists and artist-athletes on the National Mall on June 23-25. The children, their teachers and parents will benefit from a range of activities including design education, leadership development, sports and health, exercises in peace education, and environmental awareness and monitoring programs. The artworks will be presented in a special exhibition, titled Visions of Self in Motion, across from the National Gallery of Art. The Festival is free and open to the public, and based on previous festivals in 1999 and 2003 is estimated to attract more than 10,000 visitors and attendees.

Art & Sport

By combining art and sport, movement and music, health and creativity, the Festival will generate a complete synesthetic experience - a total work of art that transforms the National Mall.

“Art and sport have the powers to change the world, the power to inspire, the power to unite people in a way that little else can. Art and sport speak to people in a language they understand. Art and sport can create hope where there was once only despair. They are instruments for peace, even more powerful than governments,” said Nobel Laureate Nelson R. Mandela.
