Visit the "save the reef" Internet Art Auction!
As an event leading up to the "International Year of the Reef" (1997), the
Coral Reef Research Institute (CRRI) is running an Internet art auction.
This event begins August 15th and runs for two weeks at
http://artauction.aust.com. At this site you can visit a gallery of over
50 works of art by internationally acclaimed artists. A novel program
allows you to bid for art at the site.
The aim of this art auction is to bring awareness of the challenges that
face coral reefs world-wide. It will also function to pursue crucial
support for One Tree Island research station which is currently being
threatened with closure by reduced institutional funding. The loss of One
Tree Island (the site of projects like ENCORE) would be a huge blow to coral
reef research and conservation.
Log in and make an investment in art and the future of coral reefs
worldwide! Please disseminate this message electronically to all your email
and Internet contacts. An attractive button is attached for putting up at
WWW sites.
