Artistic Residencies; Cultural Hub; Open House The roof is the limit :)
Thank you and come again!
The CAN (The Collective Art Neighbourhood) is an independent project that sets its focus on contemporary artistic practices, reuniting two complementary approaches, The CAN: InResidence and The CAN: OpenHouse. Located in the centre of Bucharest, The CAN functions simultaneously as an (open-)studio, a platform for dialogue and an exhibition venue. The CAN: InResidence is a residency program for int
ernational artists practicing in the fields of visual and performing arts, theatre and film. Based on the necessity of a common space for contemporary artistic discourse and practice, The CAN: InResidence has set its goal in creating a dynamic environment for interaction and collaboration with the Bucharest art scene. The artists-in-residence will thus take part in presentations, visits and workshops, also being able to work with local art students, fellow artists, curators and with contemporary art spaces that support the project. Through the program The CAN: OpenHouse, the project opens itself towards various experiences and collaborative experiments alongside local film festivals, independent theatre companies and other related cultural initiatives. By hosting a large array of creative events, The CAN aims at actively contributing to the reinforcement of a consistent cultural network that has the priority of directly engaging the local art community and the wider audience.
