The Global Nomadic Art Project (GNAP) 2017, initiated 2013 by Yatoo, Korea, took place in Europe after having toured South Africa in 2016, India in 2015 and Korea in 2014. Starting in July 2017 invited artists have created land art installations for two weeks each in Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Germany, France, Lithuania and Turkey.
About GNAP
This project consists of three parts: Outdoor Nature Art Workshops, Indoor Nature Art exhibitions with 15-20 artists from around the world participating, and the publishing of documentation books from this project. We expect to have different ideas from nature since every country has different types of natural environments. We will stay 1-3weeks in each country and work outside in these different natural environments. During the Nature Art Workshops, each country’s artist will show their individual artistic approach to Nature.
Ultimately, we are not interested in trying to make a large artwork for sale or to gain exposure in the art world, but rather we would like to leave traces of dialogue with Nature around the world through the creation of small, ephemeral artworks. The artists will listen and communicate with Nature through their work.
All the activities created in Nature will be documented in photos and video and then will be exhibited in a gallery or any possible indoor venue in each country and finally these works will be published as a catalogue and documentary film.
