I recently discovered an organization called International Arts Movement, led by artist and creative director, Makoto Fujimura. IAM is based in New York. Their vision statement is as follows:
IAM gathers artists and creative catalysts to wrestle with the deep questions of art, faith and humanity in order to inspire the creative community to engage the culture that is and create the world that ought to be.
Art is society's existential statement, in answer to the question, "Why live?" International Arts Movement works as a catalyst to inspire people to hope, engage deeply into the depth of culture's critical zones, and create a world that ought to be. We believe that artistic excellence as a model of "what ought to be" paves the way for lasting, enduring humanity.
Looks like they are doing some exciting work! I will enjoy learning more.
