藝術與公益 - 特殊人群公益項目|Art and Philanthropy - Philanthropy Projects for Disadvantaged Groups
藝術本身具有非功利性,這與公益事業的根本目標是契合的。但在現代社會學科分科和人們的日常經驗中,藝術和公益在價值訴求、工作方法、社會效益等方面都分屬不同領域。十方作為一個具有藝術專業背景的非盈利性社會機構,從合法註冊那天起,就兼具藝術與公益的雙重屬性。在實際工作中藝術和公益並沒有緊密交互融合,這給我們的工作帶來很大挑戰,但也是我們得以在這方面發力的契機。藝術家擁有許多創新性才能,可以為公益領域帶來新的思考方式和提升解決問題的能力,藝術家對於社會公益的責任和熱情,也需要表達呈現的方式。讓藝術家和公益人士協作,需要構建中間平台和新的工作方法,目前十方在這方面已經探索數年,創立了復合型的工作方法和團隊,以持續項目的方式建立起各種藝術與公益的中間橋梁,並顯現出一定的社會成效。我們開展了如下幾方面的實踐探索工作:一.支持殘障人士藝術能力發展;二.支持公益機構組織開展藝術活動;三.支持公益機構文創產業發展;四.與公益社工組織合作參與社群重構及社會基層治理。
Art itself is non-utilitarian, which is consistent with the fundamental goal of public welfare. But in the division of modern social disciplines and people’s daily experience, art, and general interest belong to different fields in terms of value appeal, working methods, and social benefits. As a non-profit social organization with a professional background in art, Dimensions Art Center has the dual attributes of art and public welfare from legal registration. In work, skill and public welfare are not near integrated, which brings significant challenges to our work, but it is also an opportunity to make efforts in this area. Artists have many talents, bringing new ways of thinking and improving public welfare’s problem-solving ability.
Artists’ responsibilities and enthusiasm for social welfare also need to be expressed in the way of presentation. It is necessary to build an intermediate platform and working methods to allow artists and charity individuals to collaborate. At present, Dimensions Art Center has been exploring this area for several years, creating a diverse working method and team, and establishing various arts and charity in the form of ongoing projects. We have carried out the following work: 1. Support the development of the artistic ability of the disabled; 2. Support the organization of art activities by public welfare organizations; 3. Support the development of the cultural and creative industry of public welfare organizations; 4. Cooperate with social welfare work organizations to participate in the building of community and governance of society.
