'we don't like art&social snobbism practiced in the name of art&social acceptance'

Free Fall Artisans is an NGO officially founded in spring 2007 but it exists from 2005 as an informal collective. The founders are: Nina Bacun (designer), Ivana Podnar (art historian, costume designer) and Deborah Hustic (theatrologist, photographer).

MISSION
Free Fall Artisans are an artistic organization / collective organized with the aim of creating responsible art, art as social and political practice, art that is both, a process of mind and emotion, art as resistance against snobbism, empty esthetics and easy digestion. Our primary aim is to consolidate a sense of ethics in relation to its activities.

VISION
Free Fall Artisans aim at producing agencies of cultural and artistic pluralism as well as triggering the interdisciplinary environment by expressing its main ideas through different spheres of contemporary art. By engaging diverse media like sustainable design, photography, net art, performing art and a wide range of theoretical and curatorial methods, FFA envisages proposing an alternative way of artistic thinking and practicing. That includes all kinds of art-making which could be considered as society-making, politics-making, and, above all, difference-making.

GENERAL AIM
Free Fall Artisans are oriented towards dissemination of creative processes, originating from the living room framework / gatherings, through virtual communities, into still informal, but open subspace. Following the development of World Wide Web and the possibilities of arbitrary virtual tours through diverse services and media traced by authoring concept, FFA curates a new cyber exposure.
