O NAMA / ABOUT US
ART BOX — kulturno-edukativna platforma
Kreativno-edukativni centar Art Boks od 2013. godine razvija programe u oblasti savremene umetnosti, kulture i obrazovanja kroz umetničke rezidencije, izložbe, tribine, kreativne radionice, predavanja, izdavaštvo i međunarodnu saradnju. Centar je osnivač i nosilac rada ART BOX portala, regionalne onlajn platforme posvećene savremenoj umetnosti, kulturi i kulturi življenja.
Art Box povezuje umetnike, kulturne radnike, edukatore, istraživače, mlade i građane kroz različite oblike kulturne participacije, neformalnog obrazovanja i razmene znanja. Polazeći iz Novog Sada i Srbije, portal razvija lokalne, regionalne i međunarodne veze i otvara prostor za susret različitih umetničkih, kulturnih i društvenih perspektiva.
Art Box kulturu ne posmatra samo kao oblast umetničke produkcije, već i kao prostor učenja, kritičkog mišljenja, društvenog dijaloga i aktivnog građanstva.
MISIJA
Misija Art Boxa jeste podrška perspektivama Drugog i Drugačijeg, suprotstavljanje stereotipima, diskriminaciji i društvenoj isključenosti i razvijanje kulture dijaloga, građanskog angažmana i demokratskih vrednosti.
Kroz savremenu umetnost, kulturu i obrazovanje Art Box nastoji da učini znanje dostupnijim, podstakne kritičko mišljenje i poveže umetničke i kulturne prakse sa širim društvenim procesima.
Posebna pažnja usmerena je na žene, mlade, marginalizovane i nedovoljno vidljive društvene grupe, kao i na teme rodne ravnopravnosti, feminističkih praksi, ekologije, kulture brige, održivosti, različitosti i društvene odgovornosti.
CILJEVI
Promocija savremene umetnosti i kulture kroz neformalne oblike obrazovanja i modele celoživotnog učenja.
Razvijanje kulturnih i obrazovnih kompetencija i dostupnosti znanja o savremenim umetničkim i životnim praksama.
Podrška umetničkom stvaralaštvu žena i afirmacija feminističkih perspektiva.
Podsticanje društvenog angažmana, naročito među mladima.
Otvaranje prostora za razgovor o socijalno osetljivim temama, ekologiji, održivosti i kulturi brige.
Suprotstavljanje militarizmu, nacionalizmu, rasizmu, mizoginiji, ejdžizmu i svim oblicima društvene isključenosti.
Povezivanje umetnika, edukatora i građana na lokalnom, regionalnom i međunarodnom nivou kroz saradnju i razmenu iskustava.
Art Box umetnost i kulturu razume kao oblik znanja i društvene participacije, kao važan deo otvorenog, uključivog i demokratskog društva.
RUBRIKE
Struktura ART BOX portala zasnovana je na spoju umetnosti, obrazovanja i kulture življenja.
ART
Jezik i književnost
Likovna kultura
Muzička kultura
Sekcije
BOX
Građansko vaspitanje
Poznavanje prirode i društva
Domaćinstvo
Nazivi rubrika upućuju na školske predmete. Neki od njih i danas postoje, dok drugi evociraju obrazovne prakse iz vremena SFRJ, simbolično prizivajući kulturni kontekst u kojem su multikulturalnost, multietničnost, emancipacija žena i široka dostupnost obrazovanja i kulture predstavljali važne društvene vrednosti.
Ova struktura nije samo formalna. Ona predstavlja urednički koncept Art Boxa: savremenu umetnost i kulturu posmatrati u vezi sa obrazovanjem, svakodnevnim životom, društvom, prirodom i zajednicom.
Sadržaj rubrika oblikovan je u skladu sa misijom portala i usmeren je na razvijanje demokratskih vrednosti, kritičkog mišljenja i celoživotnog učenja. Art Box kulturu razume kao prostor kontinuiranog učenja — o umetnosti, društvu, prirodi, zajednici, različitosti i demokratskim vrednostima.
NORDIC BOX
Nordic Box proizlazi iz vrednosti koje Art Box kontinuirano zastupa: vidljivosti žena i rodne ravnopravnosti, feminističkih i društveno angažovanih umetničkih praksi, različitosti i uključivanja, kulture brige, održivosti, ekologije, odnosa prema prirodi, zajednice, kritičkog mišljenja i demokratske kulture.
Ove teme zauzimaju značajno mesto u savremenim umetničkim, kulturnim i obrazovnim praksama nordijskih i skandinavskih zemalja. Zbog toga Nordic Box predstavlja širi kontekst uređivačke politike Art Boxa i njegovog dugoročnog interesovanja za nordijski kulturni prostor.
Iz perspektive Novog Sada i Srbije, Nordic Box otvara prostor za razmenu i kritičko promišljanje različitih društvenih i kulturnih iskustava.
Rubrika povezuje nordijske i regionalne umetničke i kulturne prakse i istražuje pitanja koja prevazilaze nacionalne granice.
Na taj način Nordic Box nastavlja jednu od osnovnih ideja Art Boxa: da umetnost, kultura i obrazovanje mogu biti sredstvo učenja, razvoja kritičkog mišljenja i aktivnog učešća u demokratskom društvu.

ART BOX — A Cultural Platform
Since 2013, the Creative-Educational Center Art Box has developed programmes in contemporary art, culture, and education through artist residencies, exhibitions, public talks, creative workshops, lectures, publishing, and international collaboration. The Center is the founder and driving force behind the ART BOX portal, a regional online platform dedicated to contemporary art, culture, and culture of everyday life.
Art Box brings together artists, cultural workers, educators, researchers, young people, and citizens through different forms of cultural participation, informal education, and knowledge exchange. Based in Novi Sad, Serbia, the portal develops local, regional, and international connections and creates a space for encounters between diverse artistic, cultural, and social perspectives.
Art Box understands culture not only as a field of artistic production, but also as a space for learning, critical thinking, social dialogue, and active citizenship.
MISSION
Art Box’s mission is to support the perspectives of the Other and the Different, challenge stereotypes, discrimination, and social exclusion, and foster a culture of dialogue, civic engagement, and democratic values.
Through contemporary art, culture, and education, Art Box seeks to make knowledge more accessible, encourage critical thinking, and connect artistic and cultural practices with broader social processes.
Particular attention is given to women, young people, marginalized and underrepresented social groups, as well as to issues of gender equality, feminist practices, ecology, cultures of care, sustainability, diversity, and social responsibility.
GOALS
Promotion of contemporary art and culture through informal forms of education and lifelong learning models.
Development of cultural and educational competencies and greater access to knowledge about contemporary artistic and life practices.
Support for women’s artistic production and the affirmation of feminist perspectives.
Encouragement of social engagement, particularly among young people.
Creating space for dialogue on socially sensitive issues, ecology, sustainability, and cultures of care.
Opposition to militarism, nationalism, racism, misogyny, ageism, and all forms of social exclusion.
Connecting artists, educators, and citizens at local, regional, and international levels through collaboration and the exchange of experiences.
Art Box understands art and culture as forms of knowledge and social participation, and as an important part of an open, inclusive, and democratic society.
SECTIONS
The structure of the ART BOX portal is based on the intersection of art, education, and culture of everyday life.
ART
Language and Literature
Visual Arts
Music Culture
Sections
BOX
Civic Education
Knowledge of Nature and Society
Home Economics
The section names refer to school subjects. Some of these subjects still exist today, while others evoke educational practices from the period of the former Yugoslavia (SFRY), symbolically recalling a cultural context in which multiculturalism, multiethnicity, women’s emancipation, and broad access to education and culture represented important social values.
This structure is not merely formal. It reflects Art Box’s editorial concept: to consider contemporary art and culture in relation to education, everyday life, society, nature, and community.
The content of the sections is shaped in accordance with the portal’s mission and is oriented towards developing democratic values, critical thinking, and lifelong learning. Art Box understands culture as a space for continuous learning — about art, society, nature, community, diversity, and democratic values.
NORDIC BOX
Nordic Box grows out of the values that Art Box consistently promotes: women’s visibility and gender equality, feminist and socially engaged artistic practices, diversity and inclusion, cultures of care, sustainability, ecology, our relationship with nature, community, critical thinking, and democratic culture.
These themes occupy an important place in contemporary artistic, cultural, and educational practices across the Nordic and Scandinavian countries. For this reason, Nordic Box represents a broader context within Art Box’s editorial policy and its long-standing interest in the Nordic cultural space.
From the perspective of Novi Sad and Serbia, Nordic Box creates a space for exchange and critical reflection on different social and cultural experiences.
The section connects Nordic and regional artistic and cultural practices and explores questions that transcend national borders.
In this way, Nordic Box continues one of Art Box’s central ideas: that art, culture, and education can serve as means of learning, developing critical thinking, and actively participating in a democratic society.
