Internet offers artists through their own websites or via different art websites an international platform to show their art. Internet makes it also possible for artists to be in contact with each other from all over the world. But internet has its limitations. That's why the first Global Village was held in 2010 in the Grand Church of Alkmaar the Netherlands. Meeting stood central: almost 70 artists from all over the world met each other and the public 'in real life' (IRL).
The video of Carlos Scaranci gives an good impression of the exhibition of last January 2010.
The success of this exhibition demanded a follow-up and in 2012 Global Village will be held again.
goal
Meeting remains a central focus point; artists meet each other and the public. GLOBAL VILLAGE 2012 is:
an international platform for innovating artists from different parts of the world and
an approachable exhibition with many different forms of contemporary art for the public.
GLOBAL VILLAGE 2012 - an exhibition IRL is offering again a platform to many visual artists from all over the world. From Japan to the United States, from Africa to South America. Not the beginning artists or the already arrived artists, but artists who have proved themselves locally and have reached the point to show their art to an broader international public will be shown. The visitor of the exhibition will receive an interesting mix of different forms of contemporary art: video, installations and photography, but also the more traditional forms as sculptures and paintings
It's very remarkable that, however the artists all speak a different language and have different cultural backgrounds, their art has many simuliarities both in subject and in the visual language. The art doesn't need to be translated. The exhibition immediately pops up the question if we, also in the field of the arts, are heading towards a 'Global Culture'.

catalogue
Just like 2010 this unique project will also be captured in an art catalogue in 2012. The catalogue will show all the participating artists and their art. The catalogue will be entirely in English so that it is possible to sale it to the public in Alkmaar, in Sully and in Copenhagen.
The art catalogue of Global Village 2010 is still available. 140 Full colour page's with detailed information about all participating artists and the art. This catalogue can be ordered online via our webshop.
We are sure that we can offer with this project an approachable exhibition with innovating artists from different parts of the world to the public at large. That will be worth all the effort for the participating artists and the many visitors.
