ART1307 Cultural Association: its purposes and function

 

 

by Renato Penna

 

 

Promote art and create culture without any kind of frontiers: this is the fundamental goal of ART1307.

We want to share our knowledge in the field of art and offer a possibility to get into touch with those who work concretely in this world. To provide knowledge, cultural interconnections, exchanges of experience through exhibitions, debates, visits to art workshops, conferences, etc. To make it possible for young artists to meet older and more experienced colleagues, benefit from their experience and get motivated to keep working. To allow artists from distant countries to dialogue and exchange cultures, and to participate in the building of a shared destiny.

Our preferred vehicles comprise the organization of art exhibitions in Italy and abroad, mainly presenting artists from a many different countries to an Italian public, and exporting Italian art abroad, making it known to a foreign public.

We have realized an international exchange with France; six Italian artists have been presented to the French public by our correspondent cultural association, La Maison des Arts of Carcès, in the south of France, in June-July 2008 .

It is within this context that ART 1307 aims to promote a true connection, through art, between cultures, peoples and worlds, also very different from one another, with the hope of thus creating a true, general consensus.
