TOWARDS A NEW PROFESSIONAL NETWORK OF CONTEMPORARY ART ACTORS IN BRITTANY

► In 2021: Opening of membership to artists, curators, art critics, stage managers and all independent art professionals in the region.

In the continuity of the collaborative approach carried out within the framework of the SODAVI – Schéma d’orientation et de développement des arts visuels, the a.c.b. network has recorded the evolution of its associative project in order to federate all the professionals of the visual arts in the region.

The various stages of this regional consultation have highlighted the importance of coming together to represent and develop the sector and to structure a “resource” function to support the professionals and structures of the region.

The evolution of a.c.b. will be concretised by :

• The formalisation and integration of common values and responsible practices;
• The opening of membership and governance of the network to artists, curators, art critics, art directors, art teachers, employees and other actors of the art world in the region;
• To become the regional interface and resource centre for the sector with new missions: support and advice, employment and training, cooperation actions and observation of the sector.

► A steering committee has been set up to steer this transformation project. The finalization and official opening is planned for 2021.

a.c.b – contemporary art in Brittany—is coordinating the contemporary art PREAC, the only unit dealing with this art field in France. Since 2002, the contemporary art PREAC has been setting up sessions for meetings, reflection and training around issues linked with the transmission of knowledge in the contemporary art domain. For professionals working with the school public

A digital resources platform dedicated to PREAC contemporary art was created in 2019.
