[RESONATING SPACES]

date: 16.03.2017

The value of residencies & workplaces in Belgium and the Netherlands

Both residencies and workshops play an important role in the art scene. They provide space and opportunities for (young) artists to develop their practice. On the basis of keynotes, testimonials and an information exchange fair, participants can get acquainted with the importance and functioning of residencies and workshops in Belgium and the Netherlands.

The importance of residencies and workspaces will be discussed from different perspectives through keynotes and testimonials. Attention will be given to the experiences of the artist and the residency/workspace, but also to the broader context in which residencies and workplaces function. In addition, during an information exchange participants can also meet with a number of residencies and workspaces in Belgium and the Netherlands.

[Resonating Spaces] is aimed at artists, master students and alumni of art schools, teachers in higher arts education, professionals from the art world and policy makers.
