Established in 2007, the LADO association sets out to nurture and promote any manifestation of independent art in Poland, and to animate cultural life by publishing music and graphic design (both artistic and functional), organising art events (concerts, festivals, workshops, exhibitions etc.), and facilitating contacts between artists, in Poland as well as internationally.
In the most general of terms, LADO’s mission is to change the art environment by supporting and representing independent artists of all persuasions and personal philosophies. LADO is a private, non-profit association.
New as it is, LADO is in fact an assembly of highly experienced artists and cultural animators, with years of expertise ranging from performing and composing music, through organising festivals, to journalism and critical work. Its members have worked with and partcipated in prestigious cultural events throughout Europe, collaborated with some of the world’s most prominent contemporary artists, and themselves produced important work over the years.
The LADO association has been established to embrace their collective knowledge and creative energy so that it can be implemented with greater efficiency and thus have a more profound impact on the cultural environment in Poland and across its borders. Under a common label, LADO’s members and beneficiaries will also have a chance to promote their work more easily on foreign soil, thereby contributing to a cultural exchange so vital to the European identity.
