Acknowledging the critical deficit of art centres in our culture, ISSUE Project Room emerges as a vital meeting place for the most disparate forms of creativity whose sole criteria embodies the integrity and spirit of artistic expression and exploration.

MISSION

ISSUE Project Room provides an open and versatile environment where both established and emerging artists can conduct, exhibit and perform new and site-specific work according to their respective visions. Through an evolving collaboration with curators, artists and educators, the Project Room fosters a wide-range of artistic projects that challenge and expand conventional practices in art. The Project Room fulfills its mission through a series of innovative programs, events, exhibitions, performances, talks and concerts.

We are building a platform where possibilities can manifest openness for change, new perceptions and experiences; a platform where stimulating ideas can be exchanged, discussed and exposed.

Our programs are designed to present innovative projects, rare artist appearances, first time showings and multidisciplinary events, highlighting the creative process while encouraging broad public appreciation and access to the art of our times.

ISSUE Project Room has received generous support for our current programs from the Brooklyn Arts Council, Foundation for Contemporary Arts, The New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, Mary Flagler Cary Charitable Trust, Brooklyn Arts Council, Meet the Composer, The Golden Rule Foundation, The Edwards Foundation Arts Fund, The Puffin Foundation, mediaThe foundation, the Independence Community Foundation, and the Experimental Television Center
