... is the topic of the recent art contest of the MBK (Meisterbastler Kreis) Second Life community. Zewe Major, the owner of the six sims has craeted a fabulous alpine moutain landscape and a typical Bavarian small town. He is a friend of arts and of nature and along the river in the town he wants to place six sculptures of 3D artists, which refer to nature objects, like flowers, water or trees etc.

Together with Asmita Duranjaya, the arts curator of the community and Miriam Evanier, the chief of the local press, the rules for the contest have been decided. The artists have 20 prims and the size for the artwork can be up to 3x3x6 m. The deadline is the 31st of October 3pm SLT and the pieces are shown in November for public and jury voting in the hangars of the newly built MBK airport. On the 22nd of November the award ceremony will take place and the winners can get 3000, 2000 or 1000 LL and the first 6 pieces are chosen for the artwalk on the river. Every artist will also get a little something. Up to now seven artists have already sent their contribution and all others are invited and reminded not to forget to participate in this contest.
