After a successful first edition of the programme Probability of Exchange, the Flanders Arts Institute is launching the invitation for a second edition in 2025.
For this year’s programme, they aim to look at multiple voices and participation within the practices of artistic programming and (inter)national collaborations. They want to reflect collectively what a regenerative way of working is/can be and how co-creation can be a method to democratise artistic decision making and foster inclusivity.
The principle of this programme is to invite 6–8 professionals from different contexts, organisations and positions on two occasions for a 3-day gathering in Flanders. The first gathering will take place 12–14 May 2025 within the context of Openbare Werken. The second moment will take place in Brussels in November (exact dates TBD).
During these gatherings participants delve into sharing different practices, tackling new perspectives on co-creation and transnational collaborations, open discussions as well as meeting local artists and different local organisations. The core of the programme is dedicated to collective exchange, sharing experiences and realities of local contexts, resources and different approaches/strategies.
The programme will cover accommodation, food, activities of the programme and local travel. For each of the gatherings, there are three travel grants of 300 EUR each for the participants who can’t or who can only partially pay for their travel to Belgium. The organisers can also support in organising and arranging travel, visa etc.
