NEU/NOW Festival 2012
11-15 July 2012



The NEU/NOW LIVE Festival will take place 11-15 July 2012 in Porto, Portugal in conjunction with the 5th edition of the Teachers' Academy. The Online Festival is slated to be launched mid-April 2012.


The European League of Institutes of the Arts (ELIA) is pleased to announce the fourth edition of the NEU/NOW festival presenting the most exciting and creative artistic talent emerging across Europe and beyond.

What is the NEU/NOW Festival?

The NEU/NOW Festival has established itself as an innovative platform for talented graduating or recent graduate artists – coming out of Higher Arts Education Institutions and Universities across Europe and beyond – to present themselves to a wider international audience within professional contexts.

The NEU/NOW festival is:

  • an online festival and a live event that promotes artistic excellence through cutting edge presentations and activities in a range of art disciplines;
  • an opportunity for selected emerging artists to show their work, meet each other and create new international partnerships;
  • a place where audiences, producers and curators can see the most excellent artists and innovative projects coming from art schools and universities across Europe and beyond;
  • a forum where artists, producers, curators, cultural operators and policy makers can discuss future developments for the arts and share views on the cultural role of higher arts education institutions;
  • a means of presenting new international generation of professional artists to the attention of a wide audience.

From the nominated projects, a range of projects will be presented online, from which a selection of projects will be presented in the NEU/NOW LIVE Festival 2012.
.
NEU/NOW LIVE 2012 will take place 11 - 15 July in Porto, Portugal.
