Description

A not-for-profit non-governmental organization founded in 2004 to support contemporary visual arts and cultural production emerging in the new market economies. Primarily known for a dynamic exhibition program (with a centrally positioned exhibition space located in the exclusive downtown area, next to the Federal Parliament and the Belgrade City Hall), where various discursive public programs (presentations, lectures, workshops, conference-related events, and promotions) also take place on an ongoing basis. O3ONE is committed to cultural and intellectual diversity with a focus on contemporary art practices, thus enriching the cultural landscape in the city of Belgrade and the production climate in Serbia. Being oriented toward project-based cultural initiatives, it serves as a multimedia working platform open to all creative and innovative actors operating in the various communicative fields of culture, economics, business, and media, both locally and internationally. O3ONE is the winner of two significant awards: GALLERY OF THE YEAR 2005 (by TV Metropolis) and the BIZART Grand Prix 2005 (by The Ministry of Culture - Republic of Serbia) for the most - successful partnership between cultural/design sector and business sector in Serbia.
