Programme
Notre programme
L’Institut culturel finlandais pour le Benelux encourage et soutient la collaboration et les échanges aussi bien artistiques que critiques entre le Benelux et la Finlande. Notre programme intègre des initiatives culturelles contemporaines, durables et interdisciplinaires.
Nous travaillons à la fois sur des projets artistiques et sur des thèmes de société et d’actualité, visant l’égalité, l’inclusivité et l’antiracisme dans notre programmation. Nos domaines de prédilection vont des arts visuels au design contemporain en passant par les performances créatives, l’échange d’expertise et les forums de discussion sur les sujets d’actualité. Nous produisons notre propre contenu et collaborons également avec différents partenaires.
Nous participons activement à des réseaux comme MoveMen ainsi qu’aux groupes belges et néerlandais des Instituts culturels nationaux de l’Union européenne (EUNIC).
