CULTURAL ID is a roving blog project that creates a platform of communication and cooperation between young cultural professionals all over Europe. The online platform enables a sharing of experience, knowledge and opinions between young representatives of the European cultural sector. By connecting them online it establishes an approachable professional network for the new generation of curators, art managers, educators, researchers and all the others that make art projects happen. The project is unique in the way it visualizes the consequences of the economic recession in the creative industry from a personal and intimate level.
CULTURAL ID displays the innovative and self-reliant character and take the initiative. Still, at the beginning of their career they usually lack a strong network and experience on how to develop their own projects. The art world operates at the international level so it is more and more important for the beginners to establish foreign connections and have a thorough knowledge of the current situation on the European cultural scene. We believe that forming a strong, transnational community of professionals based on mutual understanding can be a key for this group to make its break into the international art scene.
If you would like to share with us your experience, knowledge and be part of the cultural professionals network, please email jessica@theartistandtheothers.nl
