2021 is happening and so is GAPi.
2021 also is a year of change, big or small and so GAPI also changes.
GAPi also stays the same.
What changes?
First of all: the name:
Gogyoshi Art Project international becomes:
Genuine Art Projects international. (Genuine means: real, true, sincerely)
A new name needs a new logo and Carmen Heemels designed it.
Gogyoshi Art Project international was based and inspired by the gogyoshi written by Taro Aizu,
which were based upon the disaster that took place at Fukushima, 11 march 2011.
Since then a lot of things have changed and so we change as well.
GAPi will change its focus onto real, true and sincere exhibitions.
The themes we will use are to be that as well. They have to matter to people and their surroundings.
So we choose to make art about subjects that matter in life, like environmental and humanitarian issues,
like childcare, human rights, disasters, ozonproblems, and so forth.
Genuine Art Projects international = GAPi.
It is important to us to keep GAPi, for it already established a name throughout the world by (social) media,
international exhibitions and such.
We hope you will stay part of Genuine Art Projects international and stay as active as you were in
the former GAPi and of course we also hope for every participant to go that extra mile (as we do) to
make the new GAPi even better than the one before.
Of course we will continue to cooperate with groups such as PAS, L’Art Iran, Korean artgroups
of Yoo Choong Yeul, Art Nigde international and possible cooperation with other art groups.
THE NEW LOGO (design by CARMEN HEEMELS)
Because of this change we have a project for you:
GAPi meant and still means a lot to us (Ed Hanssen, Fred van Welie and Carmen Heemels and of
course all participants) and that made Carmen wonder how much Gogyoshi Art Project international meant
to the participants.
So the first project because of the change of our name and intent is:
WHAT GAPi MEANT TO ME:
Send us 1 photo(landscape) of yourself holding up a piece of paper with one or max five words
(English or your own language) about what GAPi meant/means, to you (see example).
Please send in black and white with a simple background (see example) to carmenheemels23@gmail.com
- Deadline: March 1, 2021
- Only by mail
- Within the subject of the email: Your name, country and GAPi.
We will create a photovideo of all received photos.
Enjoy this first little project to celebrate GAPi old style and welcome GAPi new style.
EXAMPLE:
Fred van Welie created a beautiful catalog of all GAPi exhibitions.
Exhibition "Beyond the borders".
At the exhibition 3 artists were granted a prize:
Yoo Choong Yeul,
Julio Antao and
Fred van Welie.
Congratulations to all three!!! Well done.
For those of you who do not master the Korean language,
here is the English version:

Special Exhibition2020
Korea Cheongro Art Association International Exchange Exhibition
Feast of 146 artists from 31 countries organized by Dutch GAPI, Portugal PAS, and News Report
Yun Byong Ho Chairman of Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association
The '2020 10th Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association International Exchange Exhibition' held in Daejeon City Hall of Incheon Culture and Arts Center from the 25th to the 30th of last month ended successfully. The International Exchange Exhibition is hosted by the Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association (Chairman Yun Byong Ho) and organized by the Dutch international art organization “Gogyoshi Art project International (GAPi), the Portuguese international art organization “Peace and Art Society” (PAS)”, and a news report from a comprehensive current affairs magazine. did. A total of 146 artists from 31 countries participated in the exhibition, and national flags and posters of participating artists were displayed for each work, creating a global atmosphere as if enjoying world culture in one place. At the opening ceremony of the exhibition held on the 25th, Chairman Yun Byong Ho said, “The exhibition was held after twists and turns in the aftermath of Corona 19. He said, “We are truly happy to be able to showcase various genres, such as the diversity of contemporary art and the tradition of Korean art, to domestic and foreign art lovers in a rapidly changing society.”
# Hope the people in Corona 19 gain hope and courage
Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association Chairman Yun Byong Ho said, “The whole world is having a difficult year. There were difficulties in securing the exhibition space, such as changing the exhibition date twice, but fortunately, I am happy to promote the exhibition in accordance with the conditions of distance in life, which is the quarantine policy of the Incheon Culture and Arts Center and the government. I hope that artists and visitors will gain hope and courage through this exhibition.” He continued, “I am confident that this exhibition, in which East and West meets through art, and the world becomes one, will be a foothold for the future. Modern art should help modern people find a good ego with their creativity, and should help them to have a comfortable and comfortable life with a simple and modest attitude.” In this international exhibition, a number of works that show the distinct individuality and creativity of each artist were exhibited, and were criticized for having a good opportunity to experience the flow of international contemporary art such as Europe. According to Yoo Choong Yeul, the international subcommittee chairman, the starting point of this international exhibition was the movie “I Captain Yoo”, and the film's director Paulo Duarte Filipe (Portugal) proposed a commemorative event and started with his approval. Fred van Welie, CEO of GAPi (The Netherlands) was in charge of the exhibition-related materials and poster design. The title of the exhibition was “Across The river” and was decided by CarmenHeemels (Netherlands).
# A creative exhibition that contains the breath of each country
The Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association, led by Chairman Yun Byong Ho, was founded to bring together artists from Incheon and the central region, and to promote the development of the formative arts. On this year's 10th anniversary, he planned an international exchange exhibition, and agreed with the Dutch GAPi and the Portuguese PAS chairman. The works of 68 foreign artists from more than 30 countries, including the Netherlands, Portugal, the United States, and Africa, were selected, and 78 artists based in Incheon participated as Korean artists. As the first local artists, Korean artists mainly exhibited works with Korean identity such as literary paintings, calligraphy, calligraphy, and calligraphy. “It is an honor to hold a meaningful event in 2020 with the Dutch GAPi and the Portuguese PAS President. Until now, only Asian exhibitions have been held, but it is truly rewarding to have a meaningful exhibition of artists from around the world. Although it is unfortunate that foreign artists have not been able to visit in person and have not been presented to domestic audiences while experiencing the unprecedented situation of the corona pendemic, in the future, better exhibitions will be planned and meaningful seats with members of the association Will do.”
# A painter of tenacity with his own style
Chairman Yun Byong Ho is an artist who has built his own style of style in Korean art. He grew up dreaming of becoming a painter, and he started calligraphy as a self-taught, and unfolded his own world of works by showing his personality. After graduating from his work life, he always devoted his passion to brush writing without letting go of art. Over the years, he has built a unique world of art by studying various genres of art such as calligraphy, calligraphy, landscape painting, painting, painting and calligraphy, and has left a mark at home and abroad. We are contributing to the vitalization of local exhibition culture by organizing member exhibitions every year by discovering and guiding them, seeking funding for support. “If we exclude art and culture in our life, it will be a tough life. Any country in which culture and art is developed is recognized as an advanced country. I hope that the Korean people are interested in art, a cultural environment in which their works are stored, and a national policy support system for writers who are struggling economically.”
# Expanding the area of ??cultural and artistic activities through the association
“When I exhibit, I always attach a national flag to foreign artists. Also, Korean writers wear Taegeukgi and pay more attention to them so that they can play an active part as a representative Korean writer. In addition, the artists participating in the exhibition make posters to promote their work. We are supporting artists so that they can actively PR.” Chairman Yoon, led by the Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association, discovers competent artists who are active both domestically and overseas, and produces artists through international exchanges, He expressed his strong ambition that he would expand the company.
# The 2020 Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association International Exchange Exhibition
The International Exchange Exhibition of Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association ended successfully. On the opening day, watching the works of domestic and foreign artists unfolded in the exhibition hall, I felt a deep resonance in my heart. Seeing national flags and posters of participating artists displayed side-by-side, I was able to gauge the depth of the heart of how much time President Yoon Byeong-ho devoted himself to preparing for the writers. These days, the world has fallen into a slump due to Corona 19. According to the government policy of “Keeping Distance in Life,” schedules for exhibitions, performances, and awards ceremonies have been canceled or reduced without spectators. In this situation, the international exchange exhibition, which had been prepared for a long time, left regrets that foreign artists were unable to attend due to departure issues, but domestic artists were able to gather together to share joy and congratulations, and to appreciate the exhibitions shining despite difficulties. Through this, I guess I would have gained the great power of art and left the exhibition hall with hope and courage. We sincerely congratulate the success of this exhibition, which contains the breath of the world, and, Yun Byong Ho, Chairman of the Cheongro Sculpture Arts Association, who devoted enthusiasm to holding the exhibition and gave the opportunity to participate in the exhibition, GAPi representative from the Netherlands, Fred vanWelie, Júlio Antăo, PAS President, Portugal. Thank you to Yoo Choong Yeul, Chairman of the International Subcommittee.

Call for poems
One of the ideas in which GAPi(Gogyoshi Art Project international) wishes to express solidarity and hope is by a call for poems.
We call upon everybody who wants to participate, to write a poem based upon “Fukushima after the disaster of 2011”, and express their feeling of solidarity and hope. Or a related theme.
Specificly we call upon the children and grown ups of the municipality of Maaseik, Belgium.
Every poem we receive will be shown in the exhibition of GAPi “Solidarity and Hope”, with artworks by many international artists who participate within this project.
This exhibition will be held from 13 january 2017 untill 20 february 2017 in CC Achterolmen, Maaseik, Belgium.
Poems(1 per person) hand in before 1 december 2016.
Free of conditions(length, rhyme, form,..)
State your name and address, also in the description in the e-mail.
What is GAPi:
Gogyoshi Art Project int. is a non-profit artproject aiming to build bridges between East and West by artmaking based upon the fiveline poems(gogyoshi) by Taro Aizu. His poems from “My Fukushima”and “The precious earth” are the inspiration and they tell about the consequences of the tsunami en melt down in Fukushima, march 2011. Taro writes with almost photographic precision about what he sees, feels and thinks, by which hope, love, simplicity and wonder become tangible.
GAPi wants to give hope, strenght and support to those who sufferd from this disaster. GAPi shows solidarity and respect.
GAPi already had many exhibitions in the Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, Spain, Brasil, Macedonia and South-Korea. In the Belgian exhibition several Belgian artists will take part.

Aan de deelnemers aan de expositie in het Haegeumgang Theme Museum.
Ons was het niet bekend, maar misschien is het bij jullie wel bekend, misschien ook niet, maar Korea en Japan hebben al vele jaren een politiek dispuut inzake een aantal eilanden: Dokdo/Takeshima.
Ons dwingende verzoek aan een ieder is om bij welke uiting dan ook(radio, tv, krant, web, enzovoort) een NEUTRAAL standpunt in te nemen en zich niet te mengen in de politieke situatie betreffende dit dispuut, mocht dit thema aan de orde komen. Begin er zelf niet over!
Een politiek standpunt innemen kan er voor zorgen dat jij, het project of jouw land in een politiek gevoelige situatie terecht kan komen.
Het is onze mening dat je dit ten alle tijden moet zien te voorkomen.
Wij, GAPi - Artnations en PAS, zijn internationale kunstenaarsgroepen, geen politieke groepen!
Wij willen onze goede banden met Japan én Zuid-Korea behouden en heel graag verstevigen.
Een standpuntinname in dit dispuut draagt daar niet toe bij!
We lichten het museum uiteraard ook in over ons neutrale standpunt en verzoeken het museum om zowel de (gedoneerde) kunstwerken, de kunstenaars en de landen die door de kunstenars worden vertegenwoordigd niet te gebruiken voor politieke doeleinden. Niet nu en niet in de toekomst. Een brief hierover zijn we momenteel aan het opstellen en zullen we binnenkort verzenden.
Heel veel succes met de voorbereidingen en houd dit bestand in de gaten voor verdere updates en informatie betreffende deze expositie.
In short for English speaking participants: In case you are being asked about Dokdo/Takeshima( a long time political issue between Japan and Korea) please stay NEUTRAL. We are not a political group and we do not want any of the participants, the countries represented by the artists, the project or anyone/anything to be comprimised. So: stay neutral!!!!
(March 29, 2015)

Paulo Duarte Filipe(PAS) placed a video about the Minha Fukushima exhibition in Ayamonte, Spain, on the projects Facebookpage.
Text translated into English by Google Translate.....
(Text and photos: José Luis Rua) is ready to visit the exhibitions together have been opened in the cities that make up the Eurocity in Lower Guadiana, and are a tribute to under the onslaught of radiation Japanese city tsunami that devastated. The first door opened in Villa Real de San Antonio, where works by artists from around the world coexist in a single sample. To extol the act was attended by labor Live graffiti, David Mota, who was completing a magnificent mural inside the Cultural Centre Antonio Aleixo. At the same time Dança Splah offered a beautiful choreography and Ana Dacosta showed a singing performance by José Joao and digested.
Then there was the Big House in Ayamonte who opened as a stage in a continuation of the same exposure, in addition to repeating the same acts already saw in the other bank of the Guadiana. And it ended in historic Castro Marin, at the newly opened cultural space of La Sal, which likewise scenery of musicians, set designers, songs and extraordinary saxophone Bruno Correia was repeated, besides the typical sound of the accordion Joao Pereira .
Opening remarks by the authorities in each of the enclosures. Audience, much more in Portugal than in Spanish. Great atmosphere and again, the presence of the Poets of the Guadiana that added to these acts within the poetic dramatization of "Minha Fukushima" with the Japanese poet Taro Aizu. Were read their haikus, written expressly for this international event by the poets of the Guadiana in each of the venues, and then the versions thereon made several.

The words of Antonio Cabrita, Pedro Tavares, José Cruz and Ana Francisco, next to the Spanish Diego Mesa, Rua Nácher or hijack Eladio Orta allowed by the attendees, and caused an atmosphere of respect and solidarity with those affected by tragedy, which unfortunately will last over time.

Right after this exhibition the exhibition will travel for +/- 1 year to 7 places in South-Korea. By doing so more people will get the chance to see the artworks.

One of the features of a "project" is that it exists for a certain period of time. So the Gogyoshi Art Project has a certain period of time to exist as well.
It started in 2012. The project intended to be a builder of bridges between east and west. It intended to help to understand Japan in its darkest days because of the Fukushima disaster. It intended to bring attention to Taro Aizus' poems: the gogyoshi. It ends at its peak: GAP in Munich, Germany, April 2014.
At the opening of the exhibition at Munich Ed Hanssen and Fred van Welie met Taro Aizu and shook hands. This moment was symbolic: east meets west.
All participants learned from and were inspired by Taro Aizu his gogyoshi.
The project brought understanding about the disaster by having 6 exhibitions: Lelystad, Amsterdam, Wageningen, Kerkrade, Grou and Munich.
It reached its peak.
It reached its goal.
It reached its end.
We have given a lot of time and energy to GAP and so have all participants. We also have several other projects running that need their attention as does our own artistic work.
I, Ed, want to express my sincere gratitude to Fred van Welie, for without him this project would not be what it became to be.
Thank you for all the time and effort you put into this project!
Thank you Taro Aizu for your beautiful and inspiring gogyoshi.

(November 17th, 2012)
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT A SPLENDID DAY IT HAS BEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The first exhibition of the GOGYOSHI ART PROJECT has taken place. #Loods32 was an excellent place to display the 77 artworks by 36 dutch artists who were inspired by 10 poems of 1 man: Taro Aizu.
The official opening was done by Jop Fakkeldey, alderman of Culture of the city of Lelystad, the Netherlands.
We had a lot of visitors, some say even up to 200. I didn't count them but I was surely overwhelmed to see so many visitors attendeing this first of hopefully at least 12 exhibition throughout the Netherlands.
I have informed 4 Japanese newspapers about this exhibition and I hope they will place an article about the project. Thanks to Chiuyky Itoga for bringing the Japanese newspapers to my attention.
A HUGE THANK YOU to Fred van Welie, Iris van 't Bosch, André Broens and all of the Flevolandteam to turn this exhibition into something great and beautiful. Also a big thank you to Jasminka for making the most delicous sushi and cakes and other delicous things. Iris even gets another big hug for making two beautiful books of all the A4 which participants donated to the project. Both books were sold by "silent auction".
