Alyonkas and Pseudo-Alyonkas from the collection of Sven Stabroth. Last year it was exhibited in Chokoladenmuseum of Koln. In his email Sven told me he'd been collecting 100 gr size chocolate wrappers for more than 18 years.
Creative people from around the world are invited to make artworks with the image of Alyonka, a well-known Russian chocolate brand. Works are collected by Ivan Zemtsov (P.O. BOX 28 YOSHKAR-OLA 424037 RUSSIA) and posted there. The first "Alyonka" show was presented to public in Yoshkar-Ola Museum of Fine Arts in October 2006 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk9ruvAzT5M). But the project is still ongoing! Download Alyonka's image at http://denis.charmot.free.fr/ivan_zemtsov.htm.
