Mission & Vision
Our goal is to sustainably promote the diversity and quality of artistic creation in Austria. We establish transparent framework conditions, allocate funding based on clear criteria, and support projects that strengthen creative innovation, cultural participation, and social cohesion. Section IV advocates for fair pay, equal opportunities, and barrier-free access in art and culture, and maintains dialogue with artists, institutions, and relevant stakeholders.
Target groups
Supported and supervised are individual artists and creative professionals from all disciplines (visual arts, performing arts, film, literature, music), cultural initiatives, associations and NGOs based in Austria, museums (federal museums as well as exemplary individual projects of other museums with nationwide impact), public libraries, adult education centers, and other cultural institutions, networks, associations, and interest groups in the cultural sector, as well as transnational and EU-funded cooperation projects with social and cultural relevance.
