InterARTction
To improve the communication between young artists and show the cultural differences in our world through development of an online communication platform. Working in the field, reading studies we have realized that augmenting communication mechanisms between art schools and young artists themselves would provide a significant positive social impact by allowing young artists to share works and ideas and participate in constructive communication with the aim of developing an open artist community active both at a national and regional level.
This open communication between young artists would allow them to find out about the significant proposed art projects and facilitate international cooperation between artists within these projects.
What’s happening now
In January we started implementation of the project and divided activities in two major directions:
- Technical – acquisition of the hardware and software and development and customization of the platform.
- Relational – identifying young artists.
We developed a concept of identifying and contacting young artists. So after identifying art schools and art University from Bucharest and Prahova County, we arranged meetings with management of these institutions. During meetings we presented the concept of the project and the concept of the platform in work. We described the target group and how the beneficiaries will be able to register and manage their accounts, why is useful and what are the benefits. Feedbacks and questions were raised up.
Young artists came with some suggestions for the platform design and functionality.
We also where invited to some classes a some exhibitions of the young artists.
At the beginning of April we will have first version of that platform functional and in use. First 50 CV will be registered together with the team members a draft list is in work.
