Performing Art Factory is a cooperative established in Brescia in October 2022 by the Idra Teatro ets Association.
Art Factory is inspired by the idea of more innovative theatrical forms capable of placing the autonomy of art and respect for the artist’s work at the center of their project. For Art Factory, art is understood as a tool and engine for change in the social and political context within a project that is based on the principles of solidarity and mutual aid.
The cooperative aims at the dissemination of art and culture in its broadest sense, through direct and self-managed production, co-production or hosting of shows and events of theater, music, cinema, dance, visual arts and new media, as well as through the management of spaces in which to perform them. The cooperative also deals with training through projects dedicated to schools, students and high training projects aimed at professionals in the field. It also deals with cross training through projects dedicated to private, public and entrepreneurial education.
Restart Italia’s contribution aims to support the launch of the Cooperative Performing Art Factory, support its growth, foster its development and give birth to a social enterprise that will become a Hub of immersive theater, at the forefront in the research of new immersive and interactive languages and that will offer products and services for audiences, professional artists and companies.
