With no real center to today’s art
world, the February release of WorldWide ArtBooks’ (WWAB) Annual
International Contemporary Masters Volume III shows that innovation
in art is still thriving in many, perhaps unexpected, corners of the
globe. The book, produced by international curator, Despina Tunberg,
traces the latest trends of today’s art, by featuring the works of
select artists from around the world, who are helping shape the evolution
of modern art.
“As a gallery owner in both Europe
and the United States, I’ve seen how artists of varied esteem can
spend time struggling to show their art, when what they really want
to focus on is creating it,” said Tunberg, who founded World Wide
ArtBooks in 2004. “I created International Contemporary Masters
as a luxury art publication that would serve as a tool through which
artists can introduce their work to the public and the art world alike.
The book also brings lesser-known artists of high caliber to the public
eye.”
International Contemporary Masters
Volume III features more than 230 artists from nearly 50 countries
and nearly 400 works of art. Each artist was selected by a committee
according to strict criteria of originality and proficiency. The history
of the artist was not so important, as WWAB’s editors were looking
for artists breaking new ground, who’s names may not yet have been
discovered. Media presented in the book includes painting, mixed media,
sculpture, photography, digital art and installation.
In addition to producing the book itself,
Tunberg offers featured artists support by organizing exhibitions to
show their latest works. On February 29, WWAB and the Southern Nevada
Museum of Fine Arts are presenting the first of three shows in Las Vegas,
NV displaying the work of artists from 21 countries, who appeared in
the 2008 & 2009 editions of International Contemporary Masters.
While the
International Contemporary
Masters series had its beginnings in Greece, in the International
Art Festival of Chania, an annual event that attracted the participation
of hundreds of artists from all over the world, it is now produced in
the United States and shipped to artists around the globe.
Included in the International Contemporary Masters Volume III is the work of Bahamian, Desiree Cox. Seen here is her piece, Silver Surf

About World Wide ArtBooks
For
15 years, WWAB’s founder,
Despina Tunberg worked as a curator of the Omma Centre of Contemporary
Art in Chania, Crete, where she organized themed exhibitions and international
gatherings of artists and artworks. In
2004, she opened a second
Omma gallery in Santa Barbara, CA. The vibrant catalogues that emerged
from these eclectic exhibitions are what helped inspire her to found
Word Wide ArtBooks. Members of the art world – first and foremost,
artists themselves, gallery owners, museum curators, collectors and
critics – have since begun to realize the worth of such an ongoing
presentation, and the value of this particular presentation. Tunberg
plans to keep
International Contemporary Masters
growing constantly and offering an ever more comprehensive depiction
of the whole span of the visual arts today.
