ARTRONAUT helps
supports art and artists in need
Art is not a luxury. Art is human identity and self-determination, the oldest evidence of Homo Sapiens are works of art. Almost everything we know about ancient cultures is through the art they left behind. If we didn't have the cave paintings of Lascaux, we probably wouldn't know these people existed. And what would England be without Shakespeare, Germany without Goethe and Beethoven, Italy without Dante and Michelangelo? Art constantly poses the eternal questions of human existence anew. Thus, it is also the mirror of a society, its values, religion, and politics.
Consequently, governments always strive to control art. In democracies, inconvenient artists are not supported; in dictatorships, they are persecuted, imprisoned, or killed. ARTRONAUT helps artists to get what they need to be able to create their art. Regardless of whether they are economically oppressed, politically persecuted, or exposed to violent attacks. In doing so, we do not take sides for or against any particular policy or government. That is up to the artists. We only take the side of art.
ARTRONAUT helps is the non-profit organization of the art project ARTRONAUT.
We support art and artists. Because they do not fit into the grids of the art market, live in crisis regions, have had to leave their homeland, or are persecuted or oppressed.
Our field of activity is international and includes all visual, performing, and applied arts genres.
If you want to preserve the cultural DNA, you can only succeed if you support those who create it: The artists and creative people. That's why we support artists and creative people directly and without detours. By artists for artists: personally, professionally, and effectively.
This is even more important because artists and creative people are always hit the hardest in times of crisis. The cultural establishment with theaters, museums, and galleries is shut down; no one has money for art. Artists often live at a subsistence level even in good times, so even in good times they have no savings. And now there is war in Europe, after 2 years of Corona which have paralyzed the cultural scene. It seems an easy game for the aggressors.
