Quartair

Quartair is run by artists, as a non-profit organization providing a platform for production, presentation and artistic debate.

Quartair initiates and supports exhibitions, projects and exchanges with other artists and artist-run-spaces at home and abroad. The former bread factory, today turned into monument, hosts seven ateliers and a project space, which functions as a public stage for the art community at large.

As an artist-run space, we do not work within a structural program or curatorial framework. Quartair works in cooperation and exchange with other cultural organizations. We keep the space flexible, anticipating or responding to current events and staying receptive to third party projects. Read more
