The idea of lean_art, developed by founder Lucas, aims to bring artists, especially performers, closer to their audience through an immersive format. This innovative concept received approval from experts in universities, theater and film production, and individual performers.
Annually, lean_art produces a New Year's Eve gala with international stage highlights such as acrobatics, comedy, and dance, which is not only enjoyed on-site but also live-streamed online. While the on-site audience enjoys the show, behind-the-scenes, an engaging story unfolds, captivating the online audience. This unique staging even allows the live audience to act in supporting roles, attracting sponsors.
lean_art acts as a rising force in the art scene, supporting primarily solo self-employed and freelancers, similar to a union. Members receive specialized legal and tax advice, financial security, and support in finding resources such as scholarships. A focus is placed on educating young talents to strengthen not only their artistic skills but also their personal development.
Despite current focus on the German-speaking region, lean_art aims for internationalization, viewing English as a prospective project language. A central online platform deepens contacts from in-person events, offers specialized project development tools, and discounts for software. The platform also serves as a community hub for support and networking.
lean_art defines itself not only as an association but as a community of artists connected through live events and a modern online platform. The goal is to create a lively, dynamic network that actively shapes the future of art and opens up new horizons for aspiring artists.
