Du kan inte gå in i Louvren och köpa en Mona Lisa

I Vanadis blogg kunde man för någon dag sedan läsa om Claude Monet och simmen Giverny.

Bara ett stenkast bort, över vattensimmen Le Havre, ligger Honfleur, en fransk by kring 1900. Farbror IB, svag för det vackra och det franska och det icke-kommersiella, gillar det han läser!


Hello,
the redecoration of Honfleur is mostly finished. Elize Foxclaw and i tried to get the flair of a french village called Honfleur at 1900. Honfleur is part of a group of 6 french-orientated SIM's. We presenting artworks, Soliel Snook is rebuilding Monet's house on Giverny, Kaye Robbiani is a professional in building low-prim furniture, which you can find on the SIM Ville de Giverny. With the SIM Le Havre we have an open water for watersports.


The gallery is inspired by the beautiful chateaux of France. Well, Honfleur, Le Havre, Ville de Giverny and Giverny are wonderful french-inspired SIMs.


The gallery here is a commercial free zone. It's a gallery, where different SL- or RL-artists can present their artworks and from time to time we will do a ball here. All artists exhibit their artworks here, but you can't buy it. Therefore you may find a LM giver (or not ;-) ). I decided to do this, because in SL it will be impossible to go 20 meters without finding a vendor, a shop or perhaps a mall - on the ground or in the air. In RL, you can't go into the Louvre and buy a Mona Lisa. Same here.


Only exception: i will do a ball from time to time for special organisations like the RFL or Unicef.

It's my private project. So you will not find a donation box. I do this, because it's a pleasure for me, to meet great people around the world here in SL. As long as i can do i will get this space here for intersted artists and visitors open.

If you want to know more about this project, feel free to contact me (best: notecard). If you are an artist (RL or SL or both) and you are interested in an experience here, let me know. I have a group, called the IAoC (Independent Artists of Caledon). To get a membership, ask me.

And now enjoy your stay. At least: no weapons, no nudity, no spamming......

Warm regards
Monty Streusel
