Partenaire(s) recherché(s)

We're looking to be part of projects that work in the field of contemporary arts, especially disciplinary crossings between visual arts, performance and music, which promote relationships with audiences. We are interested in developing topics such as art and community, participation and the creation of artistic objects that cross disciplines. Our basic values are linked to the diversity of artists and audiences in social, racial and artistic terms. We endeavour to work on projects that meet these values.
