The Blank ArtDATE 2021 | NEL TEMPO SOSPESO

The Blank’s association activity is focused in particular in the planning and realisation of Artdate, the weekend dedicated to Contemporary Art organised annually in Bergamo and province.
A lot of public and private institutions inaugurate and attend a plurality of side events, including studio visits, extraordinary openings of historical houses and private collections, concerts, conferences, and performances.
The programme covers all time slots and involves different targets: from the artist to the collector, from young people to mature audiences, from insiders to general and curious spectators, all united by the desire to discover and talk about Contemporary Art.

The Festival is supported by the Lombardy Region as an initiative of regional importance, by the Municipality of Bergamo which supports the activities of The Blank and has stipulated with the association a Cultural Agreement, and is also made possible thanks to the support of many foundations and private sponsors. ArtDate has received the European recognition of EFFE-Europe for Festivals, Festivals for Europe.
