Heartfelt thanks to Albertina d’Urso and Anne-Marie Peyer who dedicated their time and their hearts to publishing a book of photographs for Vimala Association.
A BOOK THAT TRAVELS THE WORLD AND BECOMES A REAL HELP
First presented by Sotheby’s in Milan in March 2015, Albertina d’Urso‘s book began a long journey that took it to major cities around the world, including Rome, London, Sydney and Washington. Its journey will conclude in India, first in Delhi and Jaipur, and finally in Dharamsala, the seat of the Tibetan Government in Exile.
Through these presentations, Albertina has not only borne witness to the reality of the Tibetan diaspora, but, thanks to the proceeds from the sale of the book—generously donated to the Vimala Association—has also made a concrete contribution to projects supporting the Tibetan people.
Anyone who wishes to purchase the book may contact us directly, and we will be happy to arrange shipping.
A GAZE THAT BECOMES A GIFT
Anne Marie Peyer accompanied us during one of our most recent journeys to India and captured, through photographs of great sensitivity, the most authentic side of India: the simple India that shines with an inner light. Through her images, she tells stories of faces, gestures and atmospheres filled with humanity and truth.
With great generosity, Anne Marie decided to donate all the proceeds from the sale of her books to the Vimala Association, thus transforming art into concrete support for our projects.
Anyone who wishes to purchase the book may contact us directly, and we will be happy to arrange shipping.
TELLING TIBET’S STORY, SUPPORTING THE FUTURE
Rigel Langella and Ernesto De Angelis, founders of the CISB – International Centre for Borgian Studies for the East–West Encounter, once again share their adventures, travels and experiences, reconstructing fragments of Tibetan culture in the diaspora, from Mustang to Ladakh.
The notebook, dedicated to Bylakuppe, was created in collaboration with the Vimala Association and allows readers to enter the daily life of the Tibetan people in exile, discovering their strength, dignity and deep humanity. Alongside the striking beauty of the landscapes emerges also the love of the volunteers who dedicate themselves to this cause every day, such as Debbie and many others.
The book is available on shop.ludicaweb.com. By specifying, also via email, that the purchase has been made through the Vimala Association, 15% of the sales proceeds will be donated to the Association, providing concrete support to its solidarity projects.
