WALKING BACKWARDS

Snehta is happy to announce WALKING BACKWARDS. Snehta’s mission is to actively strengthen the artistic production and revitalize the local scene by bridging Athens with international creatives that share a focused enthusiasm to research in the city. Moreover partnering artists, curators and projects undertaken by Snehta aim to creating new readings under which the city is perceived and experienced. The program was established in 2012 and has up until now hosted over 100 artists in its international residency program. For the past two years Snehta has been making gradual steps to establish two additional core activities – its physical / online shop and an educational program run by Athens based artists. Monies generated by those activities will fund a range of new opportunities that will be announced within the following year. Amongst those - Walking backwards - is Snehta’s first funded exhibition opportunity open to emerging artists from Greece and abroad.

• Succesful artists will recieve a fee and various aids towards the completion of a solo show at Snehta.

• This opportunity is open to artists regardless of origin and artistic practice.

• Snehta doesn't provide any accommodation.
