Madonna Launches Digital Initiative To Champion Free Speech For Artists

In response to numerous injustices against the artistic community, Madonna has launched Art For Freedom, a global digital initiative created to spark ongoing discussions about free speech, and respond to protest persecution internationally. Open to all and available online, Art For Freedom will provide an open platform for artists to express and showcase their individual meaning of freedom and revolution. With submissions taking the form of video, music, poetry, or photography, those who contribute will instantly become part of the Art For Freedom global dialogue. 

The Art For Freedom project commences with the secretprojectrevolution film, which can be downloaded as a 2K BitTorrent Bundle, and grants access to art from the film, as well as three HD film trailers. If you submit your email on the site access will also be given to unlock the Revolution film in both HD and 2K Digital Cinema resolution, an exclusive HD and 2K Digital Cinema interview with Madonna conducted by Eddy Moretti, VICE‘s Chief Creative Officer, as well as handwritten messages from Madonna and Photographer Steven Klein (responsible for the films and the still above).
