We are building an Open Collection of Innovative Art

works: 150+     artists: 40+     locations: 15+

 The collection is a source of inspiration and we actively share and promote it within our work and network.

The main focus is the visions and perspectives of artists on our fast-changing society marked by the exponential growth of technological possibilities. We are interested in how the artist translates this into the work they make and what experiments they undertook to make their work.

The In4Art Collection shows how art can be a driver for innovation. It is focused on the domains Next Generation Internet and Materials for a Sustainable Future. The artworks in the collection show interpretations of future development and reflections on the current state. This results in works that address:

  • concepts & technology: cutting-edge techniques, concepts, and expressions;
  • material research: stretching the edges of a medium, taking the courage to experiment;
  • renewed relevance: the art of tomorrow, through the eyes of history showing how art is an announcer of new developments giving understanding and translating challenges for the 21st century.

The collection is a result of commissions, co-production budgets, and direct purchases.

Visibility

We want the artworks from the collection to be seen as much as possible. Therefore, we have an active policy to create visibility and show the works and their stories. We ae always open for requests from curators and artists to show the work in an exhibition.

Works from the In4Art Collection have been shown at art institutions, as:

The In4Art Collection supports the In4Art activities in translating the insights from artistic research into innovation and trend developments (innovatism & art-driven innovation method), making them a possible positive agent of change supporting our aim to contribute to offering solutions for the Sustainable Development Goals. Next to that, the story behind the works is told during our keynotes.
