ThalieLab is the physical expression of Thalie Art Foundation, a private foundation based in Brussels. Its mission is to support socially engaged contemporary art by inviting the artist to deploy a reflection, an action, an artwork on the living and the political territory in order to work on the mutations of our society in a concern of “Innovation and social impact”. The foundation is active in 4 areas:
- Production support: financial and logistical support for artistic projects.
- Residency: Providing networking, workspaces and accommodation.
- Mediation: Exhibition and public dissemination of projects.
- Art education: Introduction to and exploration of creative arts.
The aim of the residency is to offer a new approach to contemporary art creation, by taking the following criteria into account:
• Involvement of a community in the development of the artist’s project
• Support of an institutional partner
• Diversity in the type of end results generated (film, performance, visual or audio creation, publication, exhibition, workshop,…)
ThalieLab and Thalie Art Foundation are a private initiative of Nathalie Guiot, a collector, writer and curator.
