WHO WE ARE
The New Art Foundation of Vancouver was established in the summer of 2022 by a group of passionate individuals with multidisciplinary expertise committed to advancing art innovation. Our founding team recognized Vancouver's potential as a hub for art innovation, but also saw gaps in the industry when it came to providing resources for creative individuals and fostering multidisciplinary collaboration.
We are a registered British Columbian non-profit organization under the BC Societies Act and our team comprises experts and academics from Greater Vancouver, specializing in numerous disciplines such as fine art, art history, interior and graphic design, neuroscience, technology, and community education.
Inspired by our personal experiences in art, we wanted to create a public outlet to share those experiences with others. The New Art Foundation brings together the best minds in the fields to create new ways for art to be experienced by everyone and to increase the artistic potential of all Vancouver creatives.
Our mission is to be a catalyst for new ideas that will shape the future of multidisciplinary collaboration in the realms of art, design, technology and any external discipline. The Foundation provides an environment where artists can experiment with new mediums, technologies, and materials and truly flourish in Vancouver's thriving creative community.
Our Philosophy
In 2023, art is changing more than ever due to new technologies and collaboration between different disciplines. Vancouver is playing a key role in this emerging renaissance, thanks to its unique resources in the Canadian technology sector and multicultural community. At the New Art Foundation of Vancouver, we support artists with limited resources in navigating the rapidly evolving field of "new art." Our goal is to promote creative opportunities for all individuals. We aim to inspire and support a healthy environment for free expression.
We are deeply passionate about making a positive impact to the Lower Mainland and global artistic community, through three fundamental pillars:
1.Artist Empowerment
2.Public Events
3.Research & Projects
Our Mission To support creative individuals of all backgrounds by hosting immersive events that generate interest in our community and the "new art" paradigm.
Our Vision To utilize Vancouver's unique resources to create a multidisciplinary artistic innovation hub like global leaders Paris, Los Angeles, and New York City.
