Index is a collaborative, inclusive non-profit foundation focused on art, conversation and culture based in Stockholm, Sweden.
With a history going back more than 40 years (and with the form of a foundation since 1998), Index has been an important addition to the artistic context in Stockholm and the art world of northern and central Europe. Exploring the cultural sphere through contemporary art, Index works with international as well as local artists with the emphasis on collaboration.
The size of Index is “human” and the contact with its visitors is defined as a permanent dialogue. Being placed at the center of Stockholm helps Index to be understood as a key institution and node within contemporary art networks.
Index has multiple public roles as an art institution. We are a platform for artists and for audiences, understanding that the role of an art institution like Index does not begin and end with an exhibition – instead there is an ongoingness to the activities, research processes, learning programs and relationships between Index, artists and audiences. Index works with an artistic conceptual approach that aims to carve out space and time for criticality, dialogue, curiosity and building discursive situations that develop the role of art today.
