Programming Committees

Long term programming

Mandate: Programming exhibitions, performance, music, talks, video and other special events that reflect articule’s desire to expose new work of a challenging nature to our audience. Work in all media is considered with an emphasis on work of which the content addresses contemporary aesthetics, cultural and social issues, and work by artists for which the production might not be considered mainstream or part of the dominant culture.

Short term programming

Mandate: Complementing the exhibition programming at articule, the short term programming known as Special Projects promotes independent projects of diverse natures for public presentation. The committee has a particular interest in “undisciplined” practices and projects that manifest themselves in site-specific contexts and/or alternatives sites.
