Thanks to everyone to join us to Thank You Art Day 11' We are very greatly pleased to invite you here and share a brief information of the programme. Wish you enjoy our __//"A virtual live windows"//__ in between here and there, on and off-line and you and us. We have on-offline sites in/out of Hong Kong (A Space @Asia Art Archive / [|www.aaa.org.hk]), contributors and other guests could fine us through live streaming on-line and on-site. This is an upgrade version of __//"A surprised live chat section"//__ from last year's programme.

This year's main topic and keywords of programme are: //**"Be Linked/ Collective Synergy" "Positive Collectivism" "Failure"**// This is going to be a stage to share various ideas and its phenomenon of collectivism nowadays. Over 15 young artists and talented cultural workers are invited to stand for telling you a story of pure facts what we are facing now, as well as exchanging such interesting cases of how **"collaboration"/ "un-expected combination" could bring impressive impacts**. You will find more friendly gestures and a naked practice by art+cultural workers today.

**About "Thank You Art Day" (39art):** Thank You Art Day' - The Day of 39@rt is a holiday to appreciate, promote, and otherwise positively engage ourselves in contemporary art. It was established by Japanese artist Yoshiaki Kaihatsu in 2000 to foster the appreciation of contemporary art in Japan, and it became world-wide event now. Last year, 16 museums and 141 art galleries/spaces, as well as individual artists and Internet-based entities in The world, offer special tie-in programs on March 9. ([|www.39art.com])

P.S In Japanese, 3/9 (san-kyuu) sounds how Japanese people pronouce "Thank You" because there are no "th" sound in Japanese language. That's how "Thank You Art Day" is started!
