This is an ongoing exhibition of a community of artists in Washington Heights / Inwood and the world meeting in this online gallery.
Every week we create a piece of art for this site and share the most important thing on our minds.

Welcome
to Virtual:Comunidad,
an
international exhibition that explores the idea of artistic community
in an era when artists frequently relocate, and boundaries are continually
made less relevant by communications technology and travel.
This project includes artists from the Project
Director's artistic community around the world, plus artists less known
or unknown to the Project Director but living in his physical community
in Washington Heights/Inwood or meeting virtually via the internet. Every
week, these artists create an "art spark" that is intended to
keep the art engine going in the hearts of the virtual and physical communities
by each creating work to be exhibited on this site. Each
artist also states the most important thing on his/her mind right now,
offering a rare glimpse into the dreams, process, agendas, and idiosyncrasies
of the artists' minds.
The goal is to create and sustain a virtual community
where art is the raison d'etre. Artists from Washington Heights/
Inwood and beyond are invited to contribute to the project--visit this
comunidad-- making it a meeting place for serious artists locally,
city-wide, and internationally.
Join the first art spark on May 3, 2004.
