The 17th edition of ANTI - Contemporary Art Festival will take place between 25th and 30th September 2018. Internationally celebrated, award-winning artists from around the world will present projects engaged with ideas of play, playfulness, games and gaming.
A playful engagement with the spaces of Kuopio, ANTI Festival’s host city, has been at the heart of our approach to bringing vital, exciting and surprising contemporary art to this inquisitive community. For 2018 we’re focusing our attentions properly on play and gaming.
During the festival week, we will award ANTI Festival International Prize for Live Art, one of world’s most exciting cultural prizes. We’ll also host the third Future DiverCities Lab in Kuopio.
Free to attend!

ANTI - Contemporary Art Festival 2018
25.-30.9.2018
ANTI - Contemporary Art Festival työskentelee innovatiivisten taiteilijoiden kanssa projekteissa, jotka tutkivat ja avartavat urbaania tilaa. ANTI-festivaali järjestetään vuosittain Kuopiossa. ANTI on monipuolinen taideorganisaatio, jonka toiminta ei nykyisin käsitä ainoastaan viikon mittaista festivaalia kerran vuodessa. Osallistumme taiteen ja taiteilijoiden työn kehittämiseen ympärisvuotisesti erilaisten yhteistyöhankkeidemme kautta.
