World Art Awards: “This year we awarded art establishments with buildings hundreds of years old presenting Old Master originals, and conversely we selected new boundary-pushing art facilities. We opted for many high-rated private galleries representing important young work, from painting to digital to photography to sculpture. Most of these focus on advancing their regional artists, be they Burmese, Chilean, Colombian, Georgian, Latvian, Malaysian, Moroccan, Japanese, Portuguese, African, American, Latin American or Native-American.

“Our diversified roster this year includes a renowned three-story London showplace and a Prague institution (offering Czech legends of the 19th-20th century as well as European masters like Renoir, Chagall and Picasso). We chose an Australian gallery made of Australian materials specializing in Australian wood sculpture — and the only gallery in Taiwan that has focused on the art of photography for over 15 years. We also tributed large, modern art facilities with influential international presences in Morocco, Japan, Israel and USA.”
