Art Everywhere for Everyone
Take Art Around
by arc
DEVELOPING PUBLIC ART AND URBAN CULTURAL PROGRAMMES FOR CITIES, REGIONS, AND INSTITUTIONS.
Take Art Around is an umbrella project dedicated to reshaping the narratives of public spaces. We believe art belongs everywhere and to everyone. Every place has a story. Together with artists, we retell those stories, reimagining spaces and revealing the ones overlooked along the way. By meeting people where they already are, we bring artistic surprise into everyday life and open new ways of experiencing places we think we know. Explore our projects, get to know the artists, and find out how you can take art around, too.

Temporary spatial compositions that shape atmosphere, perception, and experience within public environments.
Each project engages with the city through light, structure, material, and spatial arrangement, temporarily reconfiguring how space is perceived and inhabited.

How we work with you
-
Development and production of public art projects, site-specific interventions, and spatial installations from concept to realization. Oversight of coordination, production, and implementation across urban and natural environments.
We shape the concept and take care of every detail, so the right idea becomes a reality in the right place, at the right time. -
Curatorial work and commissioning of contemporary art projects in public space, in collaboration with artists, institutions, and cities. Projects are shaped by context, place, and narrative frameworks.
We connect cities and institutions with the right artists for the right places. -
Curatorial consulting, project development, and mentorship for municipalities, cultural organisations, and professionals working in public art and urban culture.
We help you find the direction, build the right partnerships, and turn ideas about public space into lasting cultural impact. -
Educational formats, talks, workshops, and public programmes exploring contemporary art in public space and promoting and sharing site-specific cultural practices.
We share knowledge, spark conversations, and support communities and organisations in discovering what public art can do for their city.
