About
Trivial beauty is found in nature ;
Tasteful beauty you buy at the market ;
Universal beauty is omnipresent.
GDAP began as a non-profit initiative. Today, it is a growing cultural platform.
Founded through grassroots collaboration with artists and creators, GDAP has formally evolved into a registered non-profit entity 2025 — The GDAP Association.
We are a collaborative platform dedicated to supporting a new generation of artists in discovering their voice and connecting directly with the real market — not as charity, but as cultural equity in action.
This is the mission of GDAP：
To build an ecosystem where creativity, technology, and society converge — measurable, impactful, and sustainable.
If we measure only the GDP of societies, we are in a sense measuring only the progress of the lower levels of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. By going straight to the top of self-actualization and self-trandance, can be only done by focusing the sensibility in all of us, and art the one of the key towards self-actualization.
Alone there is only so much change we can make, but together, artists and audience, we enable self-actualisation and reduce zero-sum economic propositions. GDAP is a best attempt as a proxy measure of this.
