| The selection committee for "The Mindset of Innovation" project is pleased to announce that Jose Da Silveira has been selected as an "Earth Shaking Innovator". "His selection was based on the commonality of his vision in his artwork, writing and stage/screen work. His ability to convey not only a concept but the emotion and feeling behind the concept is unique. This capability is driving his work to be a new voice in all avenues of artistic media, and is leading the charge of bringing Formism into the mainstream. The lifetime of work to date is but a brief glimpse of creativity that makes him a true innovator and one of the most influential artist of the 21st century", said Pallab Chatterjee, Chair of the Innovation Selection Committee and Co-Author of The Mindset of Innovation. |
