gepard14

We are convinced that culture characterizes and shapes a society, far beyond the mere creation of art. From the beginning of the project, it was therefore clear that gepard14 is a space for artistic debate and a place for encounters. Art thus acquires a social component that creates identity and meaning in life. The project is a unique addition to the existing cultural and entertainment offerings in the community and has a supra-regional impact through its affiliation with the Bernese gallery and art scene. Since January 2008 gepard14 provides a bright, high, 50m2 room with entrance area, small kitchen and toilet at Schützenstrasse 14 in Liebefeld/Köniz. Professional artists from the fields of visual arts, photography, literature, music, dance and theater etc. are given the opportunity to deal with the subject of art and culture in depth. Their own work can be presented to a wider public through exhibitions, installations, performances, readings, theater, concerts, etc. and made accessible in an open dialogue. These can be individual as well as group works. The conventional and established system of art production and art education is thus confronted with new perspectives. In the diversity of approaches, new things are explored, developments and experiments are stimulated. The target group of gepard14 are young talents whose works we already know, rediscover and examine for their quality and degree of innovation. They already have some experience with exhibitions, may have already won prizes and grants, but do not yet belong to the established art scene.
