Global Art Agency
The organisation behind the Rotterdam International Art Fair is the Global Art Agency, an international award-winning business that organises large-scale art events in city's such as Barcelona, Tokyo, Miami, Vienna, Amsterdam and Oxford. The concept of these events is that the selling process is directly between the exhibitor and the potential buyer, meaning the artworks can be bought commission-free, a reasonable unique concept in the art world. Furthermore they connect art with art, with their choice of venues (instead of warehouses or sterile exhibition halls) the organisation holds events in the most extraordinary venues such as the Laurens church (the only remnant of the medieval in Rotterdam), Unesco building Gaudí's Casa Batlló in Barcelona, Palace of Schönborn in Vienna, Oxford Victorian listed Oxford Town Hall, De Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam - a true magical experience!
"Our concept is to connect art with art" explains Joëlle Dinnage and Natal Vallvé directors of the Global Art Agency. "There is no better way to view contemporary art from all over the world in a special location with a huge history, complimenting the art on show."

Understanding Abstract Art | Artmiabo

Understanding Abstract Art                                 The secret essence of abstract art is to have an open mind toward art that appears distorted and different.  Abstract Art creates, a kind of curiosity and a sense of wonder around the artist. Typically, one is always intrigued, when they view an abstract painting or Art in general. Heavenly Beings Abstract Art | Miabo Enyadike The difference with abstract art is the 'How &Why' and 'Whaaat the F....?!  question. Artists are known to create these kind of art that makes the audience curious and drawn into a conversation and narrative that directly affects their core as human beings. These abstract art that we view are made to question norms and they are created in different forms.

Modern Abstract Art Silhouettes to view | Miabo Enyadike

  Modern Abstract Art Silhouettes to view   I enjoy painting abstract art silhouettes especially faces.The simple reason is I can manipulate the profile of an individual, with several layers of color. Color for me is an integral part of my art aesthetics I allow color to lead my creative process in the way I see the art I am about to create.            Silhouette of a woman; Abstract Art; by miabo enyadike. My Abstract Art this week is all about using colors to create a simple silhouette, of a woman and a man. When I decided to create this particular abstract painting, it was more of emphasis on color than on the human profile. I wanted to see what the outcome of the creative process would look like.  Also to see if and when the human features are covered in colors, other than our natural colors would this Art evoke any emotions?... that simply belies the fact, that color seems to be one the many problems we have in our so...

Abstract Art Faces Ideas to View Now | By Miabo Enyadike

  Abstract Art Faces Ideas to View Now Indigo Blue color is a color tone, I have come to know and love. This color was huge in the late seventies, in my home country of Nigeria. It is a  blue color, I remember vividly that was used on fabrics to create what we know as Adire(Tie dye) pronounced Ah-d-rear.               FACES IN BLUE ABSTRACT PAINTING BLOG The Inspiration for this series is drawn from the blue tye-dye fabric in my home country, where different shades and tones of blue are applied on white cotton through natural dyes to create a traditional textile design called Adire.  This used to be an ancient textile Art of dying pure cotton fabric for days in a dye pit dug in the ground, using natural elements that create this awesome blue hue, and this method of traditional dyeing is still used till this very day. In my early childhood in Nigeria, early seventies, everywhere you turned at that time or era everyone had an A...

My Art Weekend Project with Clipboards by Miabo Enyadike

                     Abstract art on clipboards                                       My weekend, was one I spent lazing around in my pjs, eating  flatbread and hummus.  Sounds crazy or weird but for me, it was fun and a bit out of the norm.  The weird part, was not the choice of food or being in my PJ's all day, but the brief I got from a client who commissioned me to create abstract Art on clipboards for him 10 days ago.                                 Well, I have done decoupage on clipboards but actual painting no.  Not only was I not so sure, his brief was equally abstract to say the least, "just paint me anything abstract on these clipboards he said".             ...

Expressionist Abstract Art of Women by Miabo Enyadike

Expressionist Abstract Art of Women  Drawing women and their expressions is something, I am truly interested in. Female profiles and faces in abstract is intriguing and Ink drawings, are a way for me to throw that notion out there, of a female portrait created differently.  This is something that is important to me as a woman artist, this matters.                                                                                                                 I draw faces in a way that is uncomplicated  and easy to read, in a rather caricature way though not comical, with ink, it is easy to let the colors flow so that they create for me, the facial contours and structure.  My emphasis...

   Creative Jeans Art Design Ideas to Inspire Your Next Art Project"                                                                       Re purposing discarded JEANS into Art My new found obsession with Jean pants is no longer centered around it being a fashion staple for me, or comfort wear but a new way of innovation.  I look at a well-worn pair of Jeans on a person or in a charity store and I see potential immediately and an even bigger creative prospect ahead.                   My friends and family know that there is more to their pair of Jeans when it is no longer in use to them for me.                                     ...

Recycled Paper Art Inspiration and Ideas By Miabo Enyadike

 Art and Paper Inspiration Ideas   Craft will always be my first creative love, when my Art block comes I resort to making things, that  calm my nerves or create things that inspire me and take my mind gently back to art.                                                                               This time around I decided to work with Paper to create accessories and art that is appealing but inexpensive.  That would serve as both decor items and handmade gifts.                       Paper can be manipulated easily, it really does not pose any challenge just cut and paste.      I decided to drop by the craft store and pick up objects of interes...
