GG3: 58th exhibition

Eighteen initiatives from The Hague, Limerick, Stockholm, Riga, Copenhagen, Frankfurt and Berlin will present their spaces and organizations as well as selected artworks at their booths to showcase their activities and launch new collaborations.

ARNE (Artist-Run Network Europe) aims to strengthen the self-organized artistic sector in Europe, focusing on local and international collaboration, and to provide a simple information framework for artists and art students, in particular through a collaborative online platform, the Artist-Run Resource Centre (ARRC).

Not only in the artist-run sector, but in art in general, the public often feels excluded from the art world, and specifically the activities of artist-run “underground” spaces can be seen as niche and inaccessible. In a multi-layered format, the project bridges the gap between European cultures, professions, and artists at different stages of their careers. It promotes international cooperation and mutual respect, and highlights the importance of the artist-driven movement with its freedom for experimental and innovative ideas.
