Raise Awareness

Partnership with Florence Biennale of Contemporary Art

A multitude of exhibitions in various European cities showcased the artist's talent and provided opportunities to increase awareness about the PASSION FOR LIFE Program. One such major event was the prestigious Fifth Florence Biennale of Contemporary Art (Italy, 2005), which awarded the artist many prizes and distinctions for the quality of his art and his social initiative on an international scale.

During the Florence Biennale 2005 Award Ceremony, Prof. Pasquale Celona, President of the Florence Biennale, awarded Antoine Gaber, Canadian, international impressionist artist painter, and cancer researcher with the prestigious Prize of the "Lorenzo il Magnifico", in recognition of his International artistic and social fundraising initiative " Passion for Life" in support of cancer research.

The Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea of Florence, have now joined Antoine Gaber as Artistic Partner, bringing art to life in support of cancer awareness and research with Gaber's "Passion for Life" Program. This Program will continue to raise additional funds for cancer research and awareness around the world. This important partnering now presents new opportunities for selected Biennale of Florence Artists from around the world to be offered the opportunity to join Gaber's future International artistic fundraising efforts.

During his short speech, Gaber's message touched the heart of several of his fellow artist and has subsequently received an amazing support from several of his fellow artist from around the world. This outstanding support has now opened the doors to several new International opportunities with other Artists to further expand Gaber's "Passion for Life" Fundraising Program around the world as a unified International Artistic Force in support of cancer awareness and research .
