Foundation Avant Art - Creative Europe Desk Slovenia

Organizacija Foundation Avant Art iz Poljske išče partnerje, ki bi želeli sodelovati na interdisciplinarnem področju, in na razpisu za projekte sodelovanja manjšega obsega podprograma Kultura, ki bo zaključen 1. oktobra.

Since 2008 Avant Art Festival presents a wide range of music, theatre, film and the visual arts outside of the cultural mainstream. Eclectics is the priority of the festival: a full scale aesthetical and genre marriage of not only music, but the widely recognized avant-garde i.e. experimental art. The artists of the festival are diverse from one another in terms of the stylistics and perception of art, but are connected by their origin country, and very often, a common source of inspiration.
The main goal of the project is to create the environment and opportunities for a series of artistic residencies in 11 cities in Europe between 2015 and 2017. The events will be primarily regional, but will be extended to transnational dimension due to the presence of guests invited from other regions of Europe – the project will enable a possibility of exploring new places, new communities and different cultures in European creative sector, which is a core thing in case of cultural exchanges and artistic residencies. Networks and residencies currently existing in Europe are strongly focused on the one specific area, which is the area of arts. Our project breaks this trend, focusing on empowerment and enabling an interdisciplinary cooperation, decreasing the distance between the various areas of art – from performing and visual arts to innovative technologies and design.
They are looking for organizations and institutions active in the fields of a-i-r projects and/or professional education for the cultural and creative sector.
