We presented the artists that have been
involved in the project and shared their experiences of The EU Youth in Action
Artefatto. This includes the variety
of initiatives that took place to support young artists and how it helped them
to take a step further in the direction of future employment as professional
artists.
We revealed the opportunities for artists
within the project with the European partners: KID PiNA - The Association for
Culture and Education in Koper, Slovenia and Foundation for partnership and civil society development
Pula – Croatia as well as Artefatto, Trieste, Italy.
Within this framework we addressed concerns
of the art market, entrepreneurship and employability. The
deficiencies/shortages targeted by the project are also the difficulties of the
young artists to enter in the official artistic circuit and how to transform
the artistic passion into a source of income and employment.
We shared how young artists through this
EU Youth in Action project have been benefiting from the experience as well as
what opportunities may have broadened for them as well as for you in the future.
There are many hidden opportunities out
there, with excellent conditions, the question is just how to find it. Often artists are overworked with trying to
produce, so we are here to support young artists in finding out more about these
opportunities and how to get involved on a European level that increases your
employability.
Johanna Kronhofer from
Schmiede has been an associate local partner at Artefatto 10 RESET. Johanna
represented Schmiede and joined as an associate partner to Trieste for the
opening exhibition of Artefatto 10 and diffused the project to Smiths within
Schmiede associates. We presented at Schmiede`s annual festival so that artists could share experiences, impressions and opportunities for other young artists including visibility as
well as career and leadership development that are often difficult to acquire.
The program ran as follows:
