<2014 Road Show-India> went Guwahati, Shillong, northeastern provinces of India from July 5 to July 15. 15 Korean participants in total from various backgrounds met representative communities of each region through curator Shankar Barua and visited many places including govt. College of art & craft, Guwahati Cultural Center, State Art Museum, NEHU Univ., DonBosco Museum in Shillong and Wakhen Town, getting opportunities to learn and discuss the history and culture & art of India. Besides, with Korean artists mokyon Yu’s corry(Korean Curry) performance and Park Won-cheol’s drone project and some Korean art works, the group tried to build friendly and artistic relations with these communities. And we also got meetings with performers, musicians, artists in Guwahati and Shillong and could expect the possibility of cooperative projects in the near future. I hope this would continuously produce various projects. We expect a catalogue in November this year and all the results will be shared both on and off line. If you want materials related, please leave an e-mail address through a comment. I would like to thank curator Shankar Barua, coordinator Shazeb Arif S and others for their help and cooperation.
* <2014 Road Show-India> was supported by Korea Arts Management Service and Singapore Airlines. The entire Roadshow program in North East India was coordinated by The Academy of Electronic Arts (www.TheAeA.org), and also personally managed by 2 of its top trustees, as an equal gesture of support.
