Artists Networks and Autonomous Cultural Centers
Independent Creative Art Spaces Leadership Training
Paris, France
9-15 December 2007
Organizers: Asia Europe Foundation, Artfactories Trans Europe Halles
Independent Creative Art Spaces Leadership Training is part of the Artistsı Networks and Autonomous
Cultural Centers, an initiative set up by ASEF (www.asef.org) in 2003 aiming to contribute to the
promotion of artistsı mobility, exchange of cultural professionals and exposure for cultural practitioners.
Implemented in partnership with artist-run-spaces, autonomous cultural centers and/or artistsı networks,
the projects aim at encouraging discussions on issues such as cultural management strategies,
contemporary artistic practices and to be a launch pad for eventual future collaborations between Asia
and Europe.
This five-day intensive workshop shall concentrate on the role and importance of the artists/manager in
multi-disciplinary Independent Creative Art Spaces. Various interactive sessions shall examine different
aspects of managing an art space in relation to real life case studies presented by the participants.
Challenges in planning, human resources, budgeting, fundraising, communication as well as issues
around community involvement and audience development will be discussed and presented.
This workshop shall offer an opportunity to reflect on how 20 artist/managers from Asia and Europe
manage and lead their organization, to benchmark with others in the field and to learn new skills and
approaches through experienced arts managers and trainers in the field. The training will empower them
as leaders in their field and create a basis and opportunity for longterm exchange and cooperation
between participants.
