The Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève announces the launch of Agora: A Gathering of Art and Philosophy. This fully-funded online program is designed to confront the challenges of our time by combining two disciplines uniquely capable of reimagining the future: art and philosophy. Agora will offer semester-long free programs of English-language lectures, seminars, and one-on-one mentoring to a group of eight practicing artists and philosophers from January to April. The lectures will subsequently be made available for free on the Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève’s digital platform, the 5th floor, opening the dialogue to the broader public.  All classes will be held online, so that participants from around the globe may take part. In addition to lectures and seminar-style discussions, students will also develop their personal work in private meetings with the lecturers.

Agora encourages candidates with intriguing records of artistic practice and philosophical creativity to apply to the program, especially from candidates with demonstrated practice in the visual arts, film, dance, performance art, theater, music, architecture, and design or with research practice in philosophy.

The program itself has no fees. Each participant will receive a stipend of CHF 1,000, in order to guarantee equal access.
