BK information for your artists?
Visual artists like to be well informed about their field of work. Municipalities can play an important role in this. Would you like to give visual artists in your community the opportunity to be well informed?
Together we can create a plan
Example: in Rotterdam, artists who register new are given the opportunity to receive a free subscription to BK-informatie for a year. CBK Rotterdam takes care of the cost of this. This gesture is highly appreciated among the artists.
We take care of the organization and distribution, you make the one-time contact about this with the artists through an email or letter that we can provide for you.
Email us at redactie@bk-info.nl quoting 'offer BK action artists' and stating the number of visual artists in your municipality, and we will then send you a proposal.
Trial issue
As a municipality, you can request a free sample issue of BK information at secretariaat@bk-info.nl.

Frequently asked questions about
BK Information
What kind of information does BKinformation offer?

Does BK information also exist in English?
The paper version appears only in Dutch. Every subscriber gets full access to the website, which is also available in English.
Why does BK information have a focus on visual art in public spaces?
BK-informatie was founded in 1979 by the Chief Government Architect in order to bring commissions from the various governments for visual art in the public space to the attention of Dutch artists. In this way, almost all art commissions and calls from the national, provincial and municipal governments reached thousands of visual artists who responded to them frequently. The focus of the magazine has now broadened, but public space continues to receive our special attention.
