About event
We invite you to the resulting meeting and presentation of the Artist to Artist platform, which deals with the functioning of the contemporary independent performance scene. The purpose of the meeting is to share the acquired experience with other members of the cultural community and at the same time to find new people interested in participating in the Artist to Artist program for 2025.
Artist to Artist is a platform where independent artists meet and artistic groups operating in the field of performance art. It enables the sharing of knowledge and experience from practice, but also uncertainties and problems arising from the functioning of the system of the Czech artistic environment. Whether it is the division of roles within artistic groups, funding and the grant system, the necessity and form of PR for artists, and many other hot topics. Studio ALTA has been one of the hubs of the Czech independent theater scene for 15 years. They try to actively listen to the needs of the art scene and deal with the status of cultural institutions and their problems. And that is why it started to initiate conversations between artists and venues as early as 2022.
In 2023, the Artist to Artist group was officially established as a new and innovative way to respond to the current situation of artists in independent performance art. A place where you can share your experiences and problems with other colleagues from the field, learn from each other and find a way to cultivate the working environment. Without the necessary institutional support - "only" artists to artists. In the course of 2024, the meetings took place with a new group, and during five day-long meetings, it was already possible to share a large number of difficulties, but also to find solutions to many problems and shortcomings with joint efforts.
Within the group, we found burning topics and subsequently they solved them in the debate circle. The idea was both to stimulate crowdsourcing and to gain an insight into the functioning of other groups and to compare the way individual organizations are run. The next part of the meeting was focused on specific education with the help of lecturers - experts on the given topics.
🔴10. 12. 🔸 1𝟳: 00 hours there will be an approximately one-hour presentation of the principles and conclusions we came to during the entire process in the SVĚTOVA 1 gallery. The presentation will be complemented by short contributions from individual participants and a subsequent debate moderated by experienced moderator Daniela Voráčková.
🔴 At the Artist to Artist meeting on 10.12. please register 💗 the role of an observer and an umbrella organization that supports the possible creation and functioning of an autonomous group. This year's event was organized and coordinated by Lukáš Karásek from the association tYhle z.s. and Ester Trčková from the SPOLK collective.
Artist to Artist took part in 2024, for example these individuals and associations – these, SPOLK, Spielraum kolektiv, Holektiv, Robo Nižník, Debora Štysová, Natalie Tun, Zdenka Svíteková, Manus Art Collective, Justyna Tuchorska, Linda Straub, Alica Minar and collective, Bazmek Entertainment, Dočasná Company and others.< br/>

We invite you to the concluding meeting and presentation of the Artist to Artist platform, which focuses on the functioning of the contemporary independent performative scene. The purpose of the meeting is to share acquired experiences with other members of the cultural community and to find new participants interested in joining the Artist to Artist program for 2025.
Artist to Artist is a platform facilitating meetings of independent artists, artistic groups, and collectives operating in the field of performative art. It enables the sharing of knowledge and practical experiences, as well as uncertainties and challenges arising from the operation within the Czech artistic environment. Topics include the division of roles within artistic collectives, funding and grant systems, the necessity and form of PR for artists, and many other pressing issues. For 15 years, Studio ALTA has been one of the hubs of the Czech independent theater scene, actively listening to the needs of the artistic community and addressing the position and challenges of cultural institutions. This led to the initiation of discussions between artists and venues in 2022.
In 2023, the Artist to Artist group was officially established as a new and innovative way to respond to the current situation of independent performative art practitioners . It became a space where artists can share experiences and challenges with peers, learn from one another, and work together to cultivate a better working environment—without the need for institutional backing—"just" artists supporting artists. Throughout 2024, meetings with a new group took place, and over five full-day sessions, participants shared numerous challenges and collectively found solutions to many problems and shortcomings.
Within the group, pressing topics were identified and addressed through discussion circles, aiming both to foster crowdsourcing and to gain insights into the workings of other groups, comparing organizational management methods. Another part of the meetings focused on specific training provided by experts on the given topics.
🔴 On December 10th, at 𝟱:00 PM, a one-hour presentation will take place at the SVĚTOVA 1 gallery, outlining the principles and conclusions reached during the process. The presentation will include brief contributions from individual participants and a follow-up discussion moderated by experienced facilitator Daniela Voráčková.
