Our purpose is to encourage contemporary artistic practices and to foster the development and exhibition of experimental art forms.
Latitude 53 provides a forum for dialogue about contemporary art practices through exhibitions, performances, readings, seminars, workshops, and interpretive programming.
Founded in 1973 by a collective of Edmonton artists, Latitude 53 Society of Artists is a not-for-profit artist-run centre.
Latitude 53 provides a non-coercive environment to assure the freedom of the artist, and give the public access to new art forms of expression. Latitude 53 supports the research and development of new artistic practices and concepts, and encourages experimentation by artists through diverse programming.
In an attempt to more clearly reflect who we are and what we do as Latitude 53 Contemporary Visual Culture, rather than Society of Artists, we feel strongly that this new name more clearly represents and communications what we do and where we are going in the future. While experimentation in visual culture is the emphasis of the work that Latitude 53 facilitates, we seek work with artists in a variety of disciplines to become a locus for experimental culture. |
