After a successful show at the Guangdong Museum of Art (Guangzhou, CN), WATW 天下一家 is now available for travelling. The exhibition, featuring works by 7 Chinese and 7 Dutch artists, aims to draw attention to our mutual responsibility for the globalising world we are living in. WATW is presented as a montage of artistic and scientific observations and, due to its modular design, provides the possibility to include works by artists from different nationalities when travelling to other countries. Currently a web-documentary that can be presented as standalone version of the exhibition is under construction.

The 284 page book WATW 天下一家 is now also available via http://www.post-editions.com

We Are The World, the large travelling exhibition, dealing with globalisation and consumerism, has opened its doors at the third (and last) Chinese venue for the tour, the Guangdong Museum of Art in Guangzhou, China. The exhibition, a co-production of the GDMoA, the Three Shadows Photography Art Centre and Paradox has toured China since the fall of 2009. The speakers at the opening, among which Dutch Consul General Ton van Zeeland, simultaneously cut the ribbon on June 22 during a ceremony that followed up a round table discussion. The debate among curators, exhibiting artists as well as Guangzhou based photographers dealt with the role photography can (or cannot) play in stimulating social change.
The day after the opening the Dutch photographers as well as curator Bas Vroege lectured at GAFA (the Guangdong Academy of Fine Arts) meeting a group of students that are part of the ca. 5000 visual art students living on the impressive campus.
