SciArt: Science art society

The JRC SciArt project was established in January 2016, with the objective of triggering innovation in research and bring together science, art and society. Strongly influenced by the JRC mission of doing science in support of policy, it gives scientists, artists and policymakers the opportunity to meet and work together. They discuss, investigate and explore the wide intersecting plains between art and science, with a tension towards impacting our collectivities.

Yet, in the first instance, the project tries to create a safe haven to freely roam possible worlds, pursue impossible projects and to embrace failure.

As such, it is part of the ongoing innovation of the JRC as service to the European citizen.

OPENED 24/05/2024: NATURARCHY EXHIBITION 

News

In the context of the NaturArchy exhibition, and as part of its public engagement programme, the Le Biais Vert collective presented Nos Futurs Radio. Joining forces with Radio Campus, broadcasts took place throughout June and July 2024 on Saturday afternoons, giving voice to artists, collectives, associations, activists, and all people located in Belgium who concretely work to rethink ways of inhabiting the city and the world and believe that we can rebuild relationships with living things without harming them.

You can find information about these broadcasts on the dedicated page of our website as well as on iMAL's website.

Recordings will be accessible on the JRC SciArt Media Archive as they become available.
