As part of the lecture series "Art as a Profession - Professions in Art" we talk to:
Betti Pabst, Managing Director of Contemporary Art Alliance (CAA) Berlin
What can private art funding look like? Who are the sponsors and who can benefit?
CAA Berlin was founded at the end of 2007 out of the impulse to strengthen the lively scene of contemporary art and culture through civic engagement and to promote young talent in the fields of dance, theater, music and visual arts. Beyond their enthusiasm for contemporary art in Berlin, the founders of CAA Berlin, Dr. Loretta Würtenberger, Stephan Balzer and Dieter Rosenkranz, together with the CAA Board and the friends and supporters, would like to make a contribution to society and strengthen the dialogue between art, society and business.
Within the framework of the CAA Academy, the CAA offers its friends and supporters a program structured according to different disciplines, which addresses current trends and issues in contemporary culture. The discussion and introduction to unusual or even difficult-to-access topics is intended to promote an understanding of contemporary art and culture and to deepen the dialogue on content.
CAA Berlin's main concern is the promotion of young artists in the fields of dance, theater, visual arts and music through mentoring grants and project funding. These funds are awarded in cooperation with the broad network and are not publicly advertised.
In addition, CAA Berlin initiates its own exhibition projects such as "A Journey of Belonging" in 2017/2019 and the first VR Art Prize in 2021 as a cooperation partner of DKB.
This lecture belongs to the series Art as a Profession - Professions in Art. (Cornelia Renz, Julia Brodauf) On the coming Wednesday afternoons we will continue to follow the trail in conversations with other players who sometimes even seem like opponents to us artists: gallery owners, curators, museum directors, journalists * inside, critics *, but also political institutions.
We will also talk to Stefan Kobel, journalist and art fair expert (Jan. 26) and to Tobias Wall, visual arts officer of the city of Stuttgart and expert on public and private art funding (Feb. 17).
