ABOUT TESTING GROUND
Testing Ground is a ‘test site’ that gives artistic researchers the opportunity to test ideas and methods in practice. A forum where artistic processes can meet and be tested in front of an audience or in front of colleagues. Here, the artist can qualify relevant themes and share his or her research in a new, experimental space, located between academic and artistic practice, between studio and exhibition space.
