GameWorld Opens Up Its Exhibit-y Spanish Secrets

- Videoludica has pointed out first impressions of one of the most wide-ranging game exhibitions ever mounted: "Julian Oliver of selectparks describes the opening of the superb GameWorld exhibition that has just opened at the Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial in Gijón, Spain.

They continue: "Curated by Carl Goodman, GameWorld explores video games as an art form and presents contemporary art related to video games. A must read/see.... Also, the mighty Tale-of-Tales has a virtual exhibition that can be seen here. The Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial in Gijón is the new Guggenheim."

From the selectparks piece: "You'd be right to think Gijon, Spain might seem like an unlikely place to host the largest exhibition on the field of artistic games to date. This didn't stop thousands from attending, many who flew in for the show. The great turnout was of course also due to the fact that Gameworld was just one of four concurrent exhibitions inaugurating the opening of the Laboral, the gigantic new Asturian art center (North of Spain)." Sounds absolutely awesome - more of this, please.
