ARTIST RUN TEAM BUILDING

Lateral ArtSpace is launching the ARTIST RUN TEAM BUILDING project, an effort to consolidate artist-run spaces and initiatives in Romania.

The first stage of #ARTB takes place this week, between June 7 – 12, 2023, in Timișoara, when we will organise the first meeting of artist-run spaces in Romania, bringing together representatives of artist-run spaces from across the country (Brașov, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Iași, Sfântu Gheorghe, Sibiu, Târgu Mureș, Timișoara), along with international guests from Austria, Bulgaria, Germany, Hungary, Serbia, Sweden and Turkey. 

We are preparing 5 days of workshops, discussions, and presentations aimed at developing a better understanding of the independent art scene and fostering the dialogue and collaboration among these spaces, and also a couple of public events we look forward to seeing you at!
