A companion to the publication Artist-Run Europe, the aim of artist-run.eu is to enable artist-run spaces to learn about and connect with each other, and allow artists, curators, researchers and general visitors to explore, learn about and visit artist-run spaces.

Users can search specific terms or attributes such as location, status, type, or navigate the index by country.

We are accepting submissions from European artist-run spaces, projects, collectives, as well as artist-run resource organisations, archives, festivals, annual events, and non-profit art-fairs.

New entries are encouraged and can be submitted now via the Submit page.

About Artist-run Europe:

Part how-to manual, part history, and part socio-political critique, Artist-Run Europe looks at the conditions, organisational models, and role of artist-led practice within contemporary art and society. The aim is to show how artist-run practice manifests itself, how artist-run spaces are a distinctive and central part of visual art culture, and how they present a complex, heterogeneous, and necessary set of alternatives to the art institution, museum and commercial gallery.

With multiple contributors, iterations and intended outcomes, the ongoing project seeks to support, empower and celebrate artist-run practice, increase knowledge and awareness, and encourage collaboration and discourse.
