about Artevents

artevents was established by Di Robson in 1997 to produce major cultural projects, building on her established international track record. In 2004 Gareth Evans joined as co-director and in 2005 they produced John Berger:Here Is Where We Meet johnberger.org

The company has an ongoing interest in creating arts projects that discuss the nature and values of contemporary society. artevents supports innovative and imaginative collaborations between artists, artforms and technologies, alongside fresh approaches to public engagement.

The company seeks to explore the role of the arts in a rapidly changing cultural, technological, social, political and ecological landscape, with a particular interest in multi-culturalism, justice, responses to place and experimental culture.
