Where artists experiment,
futures are built.
In4Art combines the power of ‘the third source of experimentation’ < artistic experimentation > with rigorous research and a practical perspective on the need to create lasting value.

As an independent institute for art-driven responsible technological innovations, In4Art is interested in making connections between science, technology and the arts. The organisation’s work focuses on creating space for experiments that enable responsible innovations to be envisioned and brought into being. This led to the development of the Art-Driven Innovation method.
In4Art searches for overlooked perspectives and unexpected solutions that can change the world for good; it collects them, partners in their further development, and shares their transformative potential.
At In4Art, we set out to rethink the ideas of societal and economical structures or institutions by placing circularity, biodiversity restoration and inclusivity at the core of our efforts.
The moment has come to harvest the potential of the arts in our society and economy. We need new mindsets to transform our current economy and new stories to realize responsible innovations which will have a positive impact and contribute to achieving to the Sustainable Development Goals.
Network
We work and partner with organizations of all sizes, in the private, public, and social sectors. In4Art is a partner in Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe projects, a S+T+ARTS Regional Centre and has a European focus and network.

At In4Art, we have developed the art-driven innovation method to investigate, and prototype ideas. We include the insights from artistic experiments on technological and social domains into proposals for more responsible innovations through our PESETABS analysis. It is based on the view that economic and social progress should be regenerative and distributive to contribute towards a more green or care path for innovation.
This database-driven methodology can be used for identifying promising directions at the intersection of art & technology as drivers of ethical, inclusive, and equitable innovation. It is about combining breakthrough technologies, sustainable development goals and artistic point of entries, thereby creating another playing field – one which finds synergy between the R&D value of experimenting with new materials, technologies, and structures, and the propensity of artists to conduct such experimentation in their own work. We refer to this as the third source of experimentation, and see it as an imperative for open innovation and strategic decisions.
Our team
The In4Art is driven by the need to increase the impact of art in society and the regenerative economy by bringing about systematic change that contributes to the circular economy and next-generation internet. Our team is a distinguished mix of researchers, artists, business developers, creative coders and storytellers. We constantly search for overlooked perspectives and unexpected solutions that can change the world for good; we collect them, partner in further development, and share their transformative potential.
The In4Art team consists of:
