ArtBox is a contemporary art gallery based in Dublin city centre. The exhibitions programme will see a multi-stranded approach, allowing for several points of engagement across disciplines. The gallery will function as an incubation-space to analyse levels of engagement and possible cross-over points between contemporary art and courses currently available in Universities. Each exhibition also creates large scope for student engagement and the linking together of arts practitioners with MA/PhD students from a range of disciplines. This will be illustrated through the core gallery programme, as well as special events and performances taking place throughout the city for ArtBox projects. ArtBox is a not for profit arts initiative supported by Dublin City Council’s Vacant Spaces Scheme. ArtBox is funded by Dublin City Council.
