The IGBK celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2017. It was founded in 1957 as the German National Committee of the International Association of Art (IAA), working in partnership with UNESCO, with the aim of bringing artists from Germany back into the international discourse.
On June 23rd 2017 we came together in a small circle for our 60th anniversary.
On November 4, 2016 the IGBK and IAA Europe cooperated on an international workshop on social security and artists' mobility in Europe, that took place in the Haus der Kulturverbände in Berlin.
Residencies and exchange programmes are much important for the artists’ international careers. They offer access to networks and possibly new markets; they create links between local art scenes and international artists and audiences.
The IGBK provides the »Certificate for the Customs Authorities« for artists living in Germany.
The symposium, organized by IGBK and the ifa (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen), took place on December 2 and 3, 2015, at KW Institute for Contemporary Art and at the ifa Gallery in Berlin.
