The European project “Artists Moving & Learning” final conference, 6-7 October, in Brussels, will offer you the opportunity to learn about the project’s comparative study analysing the impact of mobility of artists in ten EU Member States: Belgium, France, Hungary, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Spain and the UK.

“Artists moving & learning” analyses the impact of mobility of artists in Europe from an educational and lifelong learning perspective. What are the effects of their cross-border movements –as bursaries in artists’ residencies or as guest artists in festivals, museums or galleries? Does mobility boost the creativity and of artists? Can non-formal learning resulting from artistic mobility be formalised by integrating it into initial professional education for artists? How can instruments for life-long learning target better the needs of mobile artists?

The project partners have conducted interviews with artists from the performing and visual arts from the above mentioned EU countries. Their analysis of the interviews looks at different traditions of artistic mobility, studying their potential of learning effects to prepare artists for innovative leadership within the creative industries.
