PROJECTS

Between September 2006 and August 2009, ARTVENTURE, visual art network and the associated partners will be organizing more than 50 different projects divided into several types of activities. They will encourage the mobility of more than 200 artists, art critics and the production and exhibition of more than 200 artworks.

3 cycles of exhibitions (5 exhibitions Meeting Europe; 3 exhibitions One critic, One Artist, One Artwork; 6 exhibitions Dialogues) will bring a wide audience closer to contemporary creation will also stimulate the artistic reflection upon political and social questions, as well as about the European identity currently under construction.

12 screenings of Projected Visions is an itinerant project devoted to video art. The network will complete the range of selected videos by initiating new selections, update and enrich the existing selections and organize a European tour of screenings.

7 Residencies will offer to young European artists and critics the opportunity to realize together works of reflection, creation and production.

6 Conferences will make it possible to compare and discuss the way that certain issues related to the practice and analyse of contemporary art are handled in different European countries. The Conferences will constitute the theoretical phase for all projects.

All the projects are followed by a Publication.

The 11 Research Trips give us the opportunity to meet little known and young artists in the countries that are bordering Europe and to support them and associate them with artistic projects and European networks. These journeys will be the occasion to meet different methods and new forms of artistic expression.

The last event Windows upon Oceans, will consist in 5 exhibitions simultaneously organized by each partner. This even will show the results of the partnerships within the network including all local partners’ organizations, institutions, artists, art critics and curators.
