JOJO MARENGO The truth based on facts not false allegations
In October 31st 2008, the Marengo family started World Art Foundation (WAF) in Orange County California. the Marengo's are residents of Orange County California since1970 where they publish 21 luxury magazines under the name of Umbrella publishing.
In January 31 2009, Umbrella Publishing launched the World Art Foundation website to the public and announced that in June 7-9, 2009 WAF Expo 09 will take place in Brea California.
On February 1st 2009 World Art Foundation started sites on Facebook and My Space. By March 2009 a month later, over 3,000 artists from all over the world joined World Art Foundation (WAF) sites.
In March World Art Foundation finalized the legal documents and applications as a non profit organization LLC as a service organization to help artists find galleries and agents to promote their work. The documents are presently with the California Secretary of State.
A man living in South Africa, started a negative campaign posting false allegations on Brajane's blog (a woman who lives in Belgium and who has a blog on Indian news). This man made many false allegations. Some of the allegations stated that Jojo Marengo and his expo is a scam and that there is no Brea city in California, that there is no Umbrella publications and that the expo is a ploy to scam artists. Also allegations that the Brea Gallery is against WAF and on and on. The attention the South African drew a copy cat blogger from Manchester UK and together continued The attacks until April 2009. All the negative blogs are the work of these 3 people.
On April 10th 2009 WAF opened a 5,100 square feet Gallery in 1555 E Imperial Hwy in the Brea Plaza in the city of Brea. Soon after the negative attacks stopped.
Although the attacks stopped, all blogs got posted on search engines like Google. Unfortunately these posting will always be there as they cannot be removed.
Of course The World Expo 09 took place as scheduled in June 7-9 2009 in Brea, Fullerton and Laguna Beach California, with the participation of over 400 artists from 53 countries in 5 continents. World Expo 09 became the largest expo of this genre ever held in Califonia.
The Mayor of Fullerton issued a proclamation in the name of the city council and the citizens of Fullerton welcoming World Art Foundation to Fullerton. copy of the proclamation on http://worldartfoundation.org/Expo_09.html
A city councilwoman form Laguna Beach represented her city at a World Art Foundation preview dinner at Brea's La Vie En Rose restaurant
A fund raiser has held in June 6th at the Miranda Gallery in Laguna Beach to benefit the World Art Foundation sponsor's fund.
World art foundation sponsored all but one of the over 400 artists by paying the $500 for each for the artists' exhibiting fee. Never such generosity was ever extended by a country's cultural ministry or non profit organization for a single event. Actually besides the shipping expense, the artists did not have to pay to exhibit at the world art expo 09 in California.
The Brea Gallery received thousands of emails and calls asking for the location of the World Art Foundations gallery in Brea. They posted on their site a caption asking them to go to our website.
During the expo educational functions by the World Art Foundations took place a the Fullerton Museum
World Art Foundation, presently with over 50,000 artists members in their cyber groups, is considered the world's largest art organization. WAF continues to grow daily. In 2010 Expos are planed in many countries and many states in the US.
