Toronto (PRWEB) July 5, 2006 -– The record-breaking attempt by MillionArtists.com to make the world's largest collaborative work of art, while raising funds for medical charities, will go live in 27 languages today -- Wednesday July 5, 2006.
The Million Artists project – which is already raising funds for SickKids (The Hospital for Sick Children) and MSF (Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders) – is set to be translated into twenty-seven languages by a team of 54 international volunteer interpreters and proofreaders.
MillionArtists.com makes it possible for countless individuals to contribute to selected charities on a dollar-by-dollar basis, while participating in the creation of an abstract image of one million colored pixels. Concurrently, the endeavour is also working towards breaking the Guinness World Record for most contributors to a single piece of art. It is also hoped that additional international charities will be able to benefit from this idea, and various inquiries for support are currently being reviewed.
Since its inception, MillionArtists.com has attracted thousands of visitors and has started receiving media attention. Interest is spreading through word-of-mouth referrals, and the contributions are growing. Many of the collaborators have been personally affected by tragedy and thus feel compelled to participate and see how the collaborative “canvas” is progressing.
