Subject: seeking examples of sustainable art and research practices

We are studying the feasibility of a hybrid art center and research lab
structured to be financially sustainable with little compromise of artistic
or research values.

The study, which begins this month with a grant from the Rockefeller
Foundation and support from Leonardo/MIT Press, includes finding and
evaluating existing models of sustainable creative organizations. Many new
experiments are emerging worldwide and we intend to extensively survey the
field.

We are looking for novel, relevant examples of sustainable art and research
practices and would be grateful for any pointers. We will keep an updated
web site as things evolve.

Thanks,

Michael Naimark
