Leonardo Pereznieto Wins Gold Medal at the Italy Award for Visual Arts

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 29, 2009 -- Leonardo Pereznieto received the Gold Medal at the Italian Visual Arts Contest (Premio Italia alle Arti Visive) in the Municipal Castle of Certaldo, Province of Florence, adding this award to his recent prizes bestowed by the International Art Festival In NY, the Mozart Prize in France and the Bell´Art Award in Portugal.

Mr. Pereznieto, talked about how important it is for an artist to have a clear mind, free of drugs and medications, and told us about the psychiatric and pharmaceutical propaganda to medicate people.

The gold medal winner sculptor said: My inspiration comes from nature, beauty and from human feelings. I believe talent and imagination are a basic and inner part of each of us. It is not needed to chemically alter ones mind to perform artistic creations and I do believe a drugged mind will never think and create as efectibly as a clean one. Artists who do take legal or illegal drugs consummate and destroy themselves and their artistic career.

Unfortunately, the pharmaceutical industry and psychiatry are engaged in a multi-million marketing campaign to drug society. Like Jan Eastgate
President
of Citizens Commission on
Human Rights International said:

Most people today have difficulty understanding the destructive impact that psychiatry is having on communities around the world. For far too many people, the lesson is learned only after a psychiatrist has destroyed some part of their life.

The destruction might come in the form of the death of their child due to long-term usage of a stimulant drug, prescribed for an invented psychiatric disorder called Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD); it could be a murderous school campus assault by a gun-toting child who had been prescribed a violence-inducing psychiatric drug and/or undergone death education or anger management classes; perhaps the death of a frail elderly relative from electroshock treatment at a psychiatric nursing home; maybe a child who was labeled mentally ill early in school and prescribed addictive, psychotropic drugs, who later becomes a hard-core street-drug addict.
At CCHR, we work continuously to educate the public on the truth about psychiatry. Only in this way is it possible to reduce the number of victims who learn this truth through personal tragedy.

One of the most important things to know about psychiatry is the complete lack of science supporting its system of diagnosis or its treatments. Take, for example, the psychiatric billing bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM-IV. Not one of the disorders has ever been proven to exist by using observable pathology or objective tests. A panel of psychiatrists arbitrarily defined symptoms of each mental disorder and then literally voted on their suitability for inclusion in the DSM. By this system, if a newly defined mental disorder loses the vote, it fails to make it into the DSM. The system is subjective and ambiguous; its terminology is ill-defined or undefined.
