Are you enthralled? In exhibiting your work in monumental spaces? Unoccupied churches as exhbition spaces?

I am looking for enthralled artists who would like to co-create this project in a responsible way and use these spaces in a constructive way.

Unoccupied churches have become common images in Western Europe and this situation is becoming more general. By the time these monumental spaces have always had a spiritual hand with art. They are very interesting architectonic constructions, for which a new function could be created, making use of these monumental spaces in favor of the free creative spirit, awe, eternity, which can be brought to life as an inspiring meeting place.

By using the unoccupied   for experiments, which avoids having to think in finished images from the beginning, different impulses may arise. Thus artists, but also interdisciplinary teams such as architects, artists and musician, could use this monumentality to develop new strategies. This also may serve as an angle of incidence and fulcrum for the European market.The power of creativity can generate impulses as to places that seem to be lost, it is our aim to fill  this emptiness with both hands.
