Centre des arts actuels Skol

In operation since 1984, Skol is an artist-run centre that supports emerging art and experimentation in the visual arts. Skol invites artists and other art professionals (curators, historians, art educators, etc.) to engage with the centre as a physical and critical space to produce live experience. Using an indeterminate approach, (that is, one that does not aim for a particular result but that presents the outcome of a research project), the artist producer, researcher, organiser, thinker... is encouraged to take risks with the centre’s usership and produce new knowledge that contributes to the ongoing pursuit of artistic practice. Skol is a place of potential, exchange, and learning opened to the participation of art professionals. It fosters and encourages trust, autonomy, experimentation, and risk-taking.
