Eastern Bloc

Artist-Run Centres / Galleries

Description

Since 2007, Eastern Bloc has been at the forefront of digital art dissemination, promotion and production in Quebec. The vision at Eastern Bloc is to explore and push the creative boundaries situated at the intersection of art, technology, and science, as well as all other emerging digital practices. Hybrid processes and new modes of production are at the core of the centre’s mandate, as is to support the work of emerging artists by providing them with an exchange platform with more established artists, through initiatives of a local and international scale. Eastern Bloc promotes audience participation, technological democratization, and the utilization of urban space via public intervention projects. Innovative in its nature, Eastern Bloc, through emerging artistic and technological practices, continues to advance a critical stance with regards to these many evolutions. / Depuis 2007, Eastern Bloc se situe à l’avant-garde en matière de diffusion, de production et de promotion de l’art numérique au Québec. Le centre soutient particulièrement l’expérimentation créatrice dans les domaines croisés de l’art, de la technologie et de la science ainsi que toute pratique émergente numérique. Hybridité et nouveaux modes de production lui tiennent à cœur, autant que de soutenir la communauté artistique de la relève en permettant des échanges créatifs entre artistes émergents et artistes établis au sein d’initiatives de diffusion à échelles locale et internationale. Eastern Bloc facilite la participation du public, la démocratisation technologique et la mise en valeur de l’espace urbain au sein de projets d’intervention publique. Tout en soutenant l’innovation via les pratiques artistiques et technologiques émergentes, l’organisme s’efforce de défendre un point de vue critique au sujet de toutes ces évolutions.
