On the occasion of the International Day of Peace, the port of Kérity in Penmarc'h hosted the launch of the Breton Collective for Cultural Action for Peace in the World. Through speeches, music, and visual arts, the organizers denounced the silence of major media and called for the creation of a global cultural offensive.
PENMARC'H – As the International Day of Peace on September 21 struggles to resonate in the current media landscape, the Breton Collective for Cultural Action for Peace in the World is issuing an urgent call for universal gathering.
A symbolism linked to the calendar
Launched from Penmarc’h (“horse head” in Breton), this call coincides with the Year of the Horse in the Chinese calendar. A symbolic nod that marks the starting point of an initiative rooted in Brittany but resolutely aimed at the world.
Culture as a powerful lever for action
Faithful to Brittany's maritime history and its tradition of openness, this call is not directed solely at Bretons, but at all cultures on the planet.
“Culture is a powerful universal lever. History has proven it: emblematic works like John Lennon’s 'Imagine' have been able to mobilize public opinion and influence government decisions to stop conflicts,” the collective reminds us.
Creating an electric shock in the face of media silence
To keep this call alive beyond September 21 and to engage public opinion, the collective intends to deploy a bold media strategy on social networks. In the face of the indifference surrounding the World Day of Peace in a context of international war, the organization is considering pushing irony to the extent of proposing a “World Day of War” to shock minds and provoke a awakening of consciousness.
About the Breton Collective for Cultural Action for Peace in the World:
A gathering of committed cultural actors, the collective uses creation, artistic expression, and media action as instruments of openness, dialogue, and promotion of universal peace.
