Operating as a platform for artists, researchers, curators, and cultural professionals, the organisation fosters international collaboration, interdisciplinary exchange, and the development of new creative practices.

About the Programme<\/span><\/h2>\n

(see full description in English via the link<\/a>)<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

This art and research residency programme invites participants to explore potential connections between archaeology, rivers, and contemporary art, seeking new creative perspectives and developing interdisciplinary practices. The residency is centred on gaining a deeper understanding of the work and ideas of the renowned Lithuanian archaeologist Marija Gimbutas. Her research on the cultures and civilisations of Old Europe fundamentally transformed our understanding of prehistory, cultural memory, and the origins of European civilisation. The residency aims to create an environment for experimentation and dialogue across disciplines, cultures, and temporalities.<\/span><\/p>\n

The programme invites artists, researchers, and curators to reflect on archaeological heritage and rivers as spaces for contemporary artistic inquiry, critical thought, and the creation of new narratives.<\/span><\/p>\n
