OBORO is an artist-run center dedicated to the presentation and production of current practices in visual, media and digital arts.

OBORO’s field of action covers visual and media arts, new technologies, performing arts and emerging practices. The centre’s two main galleries are dedicated to the presentation of solo and group exhibitions. The New Media Lab offers a variety of services and specialized spaces for digital and media art production. The multifunctional studios are spaces of creation and experimentation for artists who benefit from the expertise of a professional team. OBORO’s residency studio allows artists to stay for varying lengths of time, with access to the center’s facilities and services. OBORO’s programming encourages innovation, experimentation, the exchange of ideas and the sharing of knowledge.

Founded in 1982 with the conviction that the living transcultural artistic experience contributes to the betterment of humankind, OBORO’s objective is to stimulate reflection in the artistic field and in society in general, and to contribute to a culture of peace by aiming to build a more just and equitable society, while allowing room for a multiplicity of perspectives.
