Wish Tree for St. Louis

[Keith A. Buchholz]

My Artica project for 2008 is a Collaborative one, I am presenting "Wish Tree", a performance developed by Yoko Ono, and presented in locations worldwide since 2007. "Wish tree for St. Louis", this work, will collect the wishes for peace of all who participate, and fill a tree with the wishes. the piece will be performed saturday and sunday, from noon till 4 p.m., by the trees directly across from the arch, and near the main stage. Following the weekends performance, the wishes will be collected from the trees, catalogued, and sent to Yoko Ono, to be buried in a capsule at the foot of the Imagine Peace tower in Rekjavic, Iceland . This piece will be preformed at various locations in St. Louis throughout the year. As a document of the event, a special issue postcard designed by Yoko Ono, has been printed by Fluxus/St.Louis, which will be signed,dated and stamped by myself, and given to everyone who contributes their wish. Please join me in realizing this work.
peace, Keith
