This projects take place as cooperation with other cultural associations and\/or art schools in Jerusalem and abroad.<br \/>\nThis summer, the Willy Brandt Center, together with the \u201cMusrara School of Art Jerualem\u201d and the Berlin based cultural association \u201cDrei W\u00fcnsche Frei\u201d invited young art students to work in a collaborative creative artistic processes about \u201cDiversity\u201d.<br \/>\nYoung people from &#8230; we could say from Israel, from Palestine, from Germany (as well as from Russia, Poland, Mexico, Turkey and Romania). Isn&#8217;t it all about it?<br \/>\nBut at the same time we are so much more than lockers with national flags on it.<br \/>\n\u201eWe are many, and I don&#8217;t know how many am I\u2026 \u201c<br \/>\nThis quote from Chilean writer Pablo Neruda is with me ever since I was young. Everyone I meet will become part of my memory, of my biography, of myself. In order to come to peace with myself, I have to find peace with you and give you the chance to make peace with me.<br \/>\nSo simple, so difficult.<\/p>\n<p>\u201eDiversity\u201c also manifests itself in the variety of artistic expression we were working with \u2013 ranging from photography, poetry, spoken word and painting to dance and music. After a week in Berlin in August, loaded with positive energy and stunning artistic results, we met again in September in Jerusalem.<br \/>\nJerusalem. Against all conventions we introduced this city not as a city of conflict, not as \u201ethe holy city \u201c, but as a place, where we found wonderful friends. It\u2019s not political in the way as politics are defined usually: debating, arguing, proving that I am right and you are wrong.<br \/>\nAt the same time, everything is political, and so is art.<br \/>\nArt keeps alive the desire for beauty. In a time were beauty can&#8217;t protect us, each love song is cry for freedom. Let&#8217;s not surrender to a reality that is not as we want the world to be, let\u2019s not abandon our dreams.<br \/>\nI see it as a great gift to have had the opportunity to guide this powerful artistic process that was started during this project.<br \/>\nIf I look at this wonderful talented and loving people, I know there are hope and Hoffnung, Tikwa and Amal.<br \/>\nThanks to everyone who made this project possible!<\/p>\n<p><em>Willy Brandt Center Jerusalem<br \/>\nCenter for International Encounters CIE<br \/>\nSupport Association Willy Brandt Center Jerusalem<br \/>\nDrei W\u00fcnsche Frei \u2013 Studio for hybrid culture Berlin<br \/>\nMusrara School of Photography, Media and New Music<br \/>\nSupported by the europeans for peace is a programme of the Foundation EVZ (Remembrance, Responsibility and Future)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nD!versity.
