A special exhibit needs a special guest. Perhaps a head-of-state, one with experience with Alzheimer’s Disease, really ought visit The Hague.

The entry by Norwegian artist David Sandum for the 2026 @paeartforacause.bsky.social dedicated to supporting people and families affected by Alzheimer’s. The exhibit will take place at See Lab in The Hague, opening June 6th. Curator @tessawm-artist.bsky.social  Nearly 1000 artists from 42 countries are now registered and we are a force for good!

David’s words: This will be the 15th exhibit. I started the project in my hometown of Moss Norway in 2010, to raise funds for children’s books for my public library. Since then we have been in Los Angeles, Canberra (Australia), New York City, Stratford Upon Avon, Edinburgh, Cheltenham, Myrtle Beach (South Carolina), York, Vancouver, and last year, McKinney, Texas! All helping worthy causes through our love of art. It has not always been an easy ride. We have survived through a pandemic, and later a changing social media landscape. For this reason, we changed the name in 2023 from TAE (Twitter Art Exhibit) to PAE (Postcard Art Exhibit). I carry the love for all of our previous board members, curators, our participating artists, our causes and charities deep in my heart. Reflecting on this, I have concluded that there is nothing more creative than to watch something grow, and nothing more special when it is done with love. My words are appropriately inspired by a Dutch artist, 

«It is good to love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.»
-Vincent Van Gogh

Back in 2024, I participated in the Postcard Art Exhibit, a charity event artists can donate 5” x 7” pieces. This year it’s far from me, but I wanted to send another. Hopefully a good progression from the last!
