Café Artistique
An initiative developed by Axis to stimulate discussion and critical debate in an informal and relaxed atmosphere
Axis organise Café Artistique evening events in bars and cafés across England and Wales.
At each event a guest speaker gives a short presentation on a theme, which is then opened up for discussion. An artist-in-residence is commissioned for the evening to respond to each event.
All Café Artistique events are documented in the Café Artistique archive.
