How it started

Founder of ArtistPA Lara van Oudenaarde (MA Fine Arts, Leiden Uni (Nl),

Manama in Curating, Ghent Uni) has experience in various creative domains such

as communication, organization, fundraising and research. She was curatorial assistant

and manager of international press trips for Jan Fabre at Venice Biennale and

Manifesta12, Palermo. Lara knows the value of highly personal guidance and

long-term partnerships.

 

Lara joined Starterslabo in 2020, a Startup programme in Ghent that enabled the

transformation from freelance to full-time cultural mediator. She developed lasting

collaborations with Arne Sierens, Tom Herck, Hassan Khayoon and

Beefcake Publishing (Ghent), among others.

 

ArtistPA's mission is to support and promote contemporary art and culture. Connecting

the creative sector with other sectors and with current social themes, ArtistPA anchors art

in our daily lives. ArtistPA develops an innovative program with a clear vision of the

concept and the intended audience.
