Biography
| Anthony Asael is a prominent photographer. He was born in Belgium from a Turkish mother and from a father of Italian origin, Anthony has always lived in a multicultural environment and has covered more than 90 countries over 5 continents. His passion for photography began very early. At 7 years old, he was already developing his black and white work in a lab. Over the next years, he was given the opportunity to travel on several occasions with his cousin – a professional Italian photographer - as his personal assistant. Today, he loves to catch eyes and smiles from all over the world through portrait photography. His famous expositions of “Colors and Scents” and his vivid work have been exposed in several continents. To further promote Artistic Education in schools, the proceeds from the sales of this book will contribute to the implementation of the projects of NGOs focused on education and children through art. He founded Art in All of Us (www.artinallofus.org) and is now dedicated to accomplish the mission of this organization. The mission of Art in All of Us is to promote creatively cultural exchange throughout the UN listed countries, using universal art elements as photography and poetry. The construction of a better and fair world needs to go through the education of the less advantaged person. Therefore, they decided to focus this project on children, since in most countries they are only considered as half a person, and do not benefit from the right to express themselves. The AiA World Art Book Program of Art in All of Us will present in one book each and every of the 191 UN-listed countries through a single portrait of a resident, a drawing and a poetry done by a local child.Today they have gathered information of more than 85 countries and Art in All of Us is sponsored by the UNICEF. To further promote Artistic Education in schools, the proceeds from the sales of this book will contribute to the implementation of the projects of NGOs focused on education and children through art.
