Culture Action’s call for artistic freedom and autonomy of the arts
IETM is one of the co-signers of the call for artistic freedom and autonomy of the arts issued by Culture Action Europe.
The call expresses our growing concern over the increasing political intervention by governments in the work of cultural organisations across Europe and urges the European institutions to incorporate aspects of the freedom of artistic expression into its annual Rule of Law report, supported through a European observatory on the freedom of artistic expression.
It is vital to ensure that cultural spaces can continue to operate as open and democratic environments that resist intimidation and political interference.
