TRANSCULTURAL EXCHANGE'S MISSION STATEMENT:

Art centre Saksala ArtRadius has been invited into the first conference in spring 2007 to give a lecture about artist-in-residence and has been participating in mentoring sessions during the conference.

During the second conference in April 2009 Saksala ArtRadius will also participate in the interesting program.

Three artists of the artist-in-residence program of Saksala ArtRadius have been accepted into  international collaboration project with their show SOJOURN IN WHITE.
The artists Ilse van den Berk (the Netherlands), Behrouz Rae (Iran) and the curator Claire Watson (Australia) are the participants.

The show was exhibited in the AllaprimA MuseuM of Saksala ArtRadius and will be also in two places in Australia - Cowwart Art Space and Gippsland Art Gallery in November and December 2008.  The Australian artist Maria-Luisa Marino will participate in the last part of the show.
