  • A Short History of Georgian Architecture
    A SHORT HISTORY OF GEORGIAN ARCHITECTURE Georgia is situated on the isthmus between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. In the north it is bounded by the Main Caucasian Range, forming the frontier with Russia, Azerbaijan to the east and in the south by Armenia and Turkey. Geographically Georgia is the meeting place of the European and Asian continents and is located at the crossroads of western and eastern cultures. In classical sources eastern Georgia is called Iberia or Caucasian Iberia, while western Georgia was known to Greeks and Romans as Colchis. Georgia has an elongated form from east to west. Approximately in the centre in the Great Caucasian range extends downwards to the south Surami range, bisecting the country into western and eastern parts. Although this range is not high, it produces different climates on its western and eastern sides. In the western part the climate is milder and on the sea coast sub-tropical with frequent rains, while the eastern part is typically dry. Figure 1 Map of Georgia Georgian vernacular architecture The different climates in western and eastern Georgia, together with distinct local building materials and various cultural differences creates a diverse range of vernacular architectural styles. In western Georgia, because the climate is mild and the region has abundance of timber, vernacular architecture is characterised by timber buildings. Surrounding the timber houses are lawns and decorative trees, which rarely found in the rest of the country. The population and hamlets scattered in the landscape. In eastern Georgia, vernacular architecture is typified by Darbazi, a type of masonry building partially cut into ground and roofed by timber or stone (rarely) constructions known as Darbazi, from which the type derives its name.

  • Fairs and Exhibitions in China 2015
    Fairs and Exhibitions in China 2015 Preface Although China became the first trading country in the world in 2013, there was still a big gap from the target of a “trading power” with high quality and technology as well as strong competitiveness and creativity. Currently, China’s economy still faces many difficulties and challenges, including the big pressure of economic downturn and the pains of structural adjustment. In the future, the growth rate of world’s economy may show a slight rise, but it is difficult to significantly change the trend of recovery weakness. In the “new normal” context that China’s economic growth declines from a high speed to a middle-high speed, economic structure is constantly optimized and upgraded, and the element-driven and investment-driven mode turns into innovation-driven mode, professional economic and trading exhibitions, as an effective channel of optimizing industrial structure, encouraging scientific and technological innovation, exploiting trade and investment markets, and promoting balanced development between export and trade, should catch the opportunity to help China’s enterprises to realize transformation and upgrade, push up economic development, enhance economic quality and efficiency, and cultivate new advantages in international competitiveness. China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) has held and participated in economic and trade exhibitions around the world since 60 years ago. Since the reform and opening-up, especially when China entered into WTO, CCPIT has given full play to its advantages to provide management and other services for overall, coordinated and sustainable development of China’s exhibition economy, and put up an effective platform for extensive exhibition organizers and exhibitors to carry out international exchange and economic and trade cooperation, thus making its contributions to the prosperous development of China’s exhibition industry.

  • Speaking Through the Branches: the Work of Sherry Owens by Bradley Sumrall
    June 2017 Page 1 of 3 Speaking Through the Branches: The Work of Sherry Owens By Bradley Sumrall Sherry Owens, Waterhole, 2017, crepe myrtle, dye and wax, 24 x 36 x 36 inches, loan courtesy of the artist, photography by Harrison Evans Photography, Dallas, Texas The first time I walked into Sherry Owens’ studio, I was overwhelmed by the space. It was as if I had stepped into a petrified bramble, a nest of wooden bones, a temple for a tree goddess. Completely surrounded by pieces of crepe myrtle – bound, piled, whittled, waxed and stained – I felt I had stepped inside of a Sherry Owens sculpture, and I had no desire to leave. Artists through the ages have looked at a piece of wood and seen something within, something that they feel needs to be brought forth by the artist’s hand. From ancient African and Asian cultures into the New World, root carving has been practiced throughout history. In the American South, there is a strong tradition of vernacular art based in this animistic practice of exposing the spirit within the wood, including artists like Ralph Griffin, Thornton Dial, Bessie Harvey and Jesse James Aaron. “Trees is soul June 2017 Page 2 of 3 people to me,” said Bessie Harvey. “Maybe not to other people, but I have watched trees when they pray, and I have watched them shout, and sometimes, they give thanks slowly and quietly.”1 These artists approached the medium with reverence, and Owens shares that spiritual view of nature. She brings her own contemporary aesthetic, however, to the process – a post-minimalist aesthetic tied to the Texas landscape and environmental concerns.
