Save the date - Landscape Sketch of the Arts: session Decision Making
Give your opinion and contribute to the Landscape Sketch of the Arts!
The Landscape Sketch of the Arts is a comprehensive analysis of Flanders' professional arts landscape that Flanders Arts Institute puts together at the start of each new political term. To make sure nothing is overlooked, we organise several sessions throughout 2024 to gather input from the sector, each time focusing on a different part of the arts field.
Flanders Arts Institute organised an open call for suggestions around un(der)exposed themes towards our Landscape Sketch of the Arts. This session was one of the submissions. Check out the other topics we are including in the process here.
Session Decision Making
What is art and who decides what art is about? Give your opinion and engage in a conversation about possible ways to make decisions in the arts sector. By making artistic (content-related) choices, we offer opportunities to people and that is a great responsibility. Implicit or explicit preferences may come into play - and sometimes that is even the intention.
How do we make decisions without hidden biases? How do you determine a procedure and set up a jury? How do you make rules and criteria as fair and clear as possible? And how do you work those barriers away? How do you communicate with people who apply or submit proposals?

Remuneration, barriers and confidentiality
Flanders Arts Institute wants creators' voices to be heard more. For freelance artists (who are not on the payroll of an arts organisation and for whom participation is therefore unpaid) Flanders Arts Institute provides a volunteer fee. You can indicate this in the practical confirmation email.
Furthermore, we want to help address any barriers for participants, e.g. through hybrid participation for people who have difficulty getting physically on site, food preferences or childcare. Please let us know how we can accommodate you via that same confirmation email.
To enable a safe conversation, Flanders Arts Institute commits to keeping identifiable statements within the conversation and to anonymously incorporate these insights into the final report.
