Global Love Museum
Legendary loves - making the world a better place
We collect places and their memories.
Museums are not primarily about objects but about values. They are created to recognize and protect what they find is endangered - a human experience that should be retained and passed on. Love is the value of our choice.
This is a virtual museum, but it is also very much real
The world is dotted by thousands of places of legendary loves. If we succeed in sending out our travelling exhibitions or encourage others to set up permanent ones around the local story, our museum will spread even physically.
Our temporary, travelling exhibition will tour the places of love all over the world
Being simple, modular, inexpensive and attractive with its universal theme, the exhibition might generate lot of public attention. Our aim is that the exhibition brings attention to the local memory, to our project and the its further capacities.
Our acquisition policy is not limited to the past.
Any love story, yours maybe, might be a potential candidate for our collection and the exhibitions we shall propose or run. We welcome any assistance.
Most troubles of this world are due to the lack of love.
In some of its forms and to a great extent, love is the solution to any problem.

Why love ?
Love is the only perfect communication human beings can achieve and the true name of freedom. Love has always ignored differences and boundaries; it has always been above the rules and beyond limitations. Love between two human beings seems to gives us the ultimate feeling of fulfilment and purpose.
With it we are invulnerable and noble. Without it, we are exposed to insecurities and inhibitions which demean the human condition. Love is universal and common to all and everybody - no matter when and where on the entire Earth we happen to be. It may well be that love is the central generative principle of the Universe.
