Gonkar part 1

http://www.asia-ngo.org/en/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&... This interview is part of a wider project implemented last year by ASIA Onlus. The issue tackled by the project was Tibetan art in transition between tradition and modernity. In particular, the project aimed at raising people's awareness on the importance of promoting and safeguarding Tibetan theatre, cinema and painting. The natural output of the project has been the publication on the booklet, which can be downloaded on line

LOL - Many none Artists Tibetans have multi culturelle influence too, who is typical Tibetan, what makes it ?

@HumanRightsVideosTib Gonkar Gyatso was invited to Italy to talk about his art and his way of understanding Tibetan tradition. His view is an extremely original one: being Tibetan, he has a Tibetan cultural identity; yet, having lived in mainland China first and then in India and England, his pieces of art reveal an extremely etherogeneous and eclectic style.

It's a shame that no Tibetan ever commented or gave feedback to you however I am sure like there are hundreds of us who have been appreciating your artworks. I love your "my identity" and the sticker one among others. Wow and just wow.

@tendho It is possible to download, on ASIA Onlus website the booklet "Tibetan Arts in Transition", output of the project on Tibetan artistic expressions implemented by ASIA in 2008
