「前瞻」創新多媒體藝術協會（澳門）

成立於2019年，是一個非營利的，由策展人、藝術家、文化傳播等專業人士組成。扎根於中國大灣區的澳門，致力於推動澳門藝術的國際化發展，通過與世界各地藝術機構、策展人及藝術家的合作，舉辦工作坊、講座、研討會等活動，鼓勵藝術家進行創新與實驗，探索多媒體藝術的新形式與可能性。本會也參與國際展覽、藝術節及文化交流活動，協助他們進入國際市場，與全球藝術界建立聯繫。為澳門的藝文生態注入更多活力、可能性及前瞻性的發展。

「前瞻」“Avant-garde” 一詞，源於十九世紀世界藝術之都巴黎，當時藝術家深受啟蒙思想到後來一系列藝術及社會文化運動的推動，以一種前瞻的精神追尋著藝術文化的突破及進行實驗性的創作。這些人物代表著走在時代前端的文化群體，他們以行動創造未來。這種前衛反映了一種打破傳統的藝術觀念，美在現代主義的思潮下退去了固化的模式，而創作隨思考自由流動，隨心定義，在二十世紀之始，任何有質量的精神價值都可以成為藝術，藝術家從固有的思維及美學定型中解放，我們協會取其超前於時代的精神特質，期望推動及拓寬藝術文化視野及創作領域。

協會的核心目標是為澳門的藝術家提供一個國際化的平台，提升澳門藝術的國際影響力。「前瞻」希望能夠成為澳門藝術與文化發展的重要推動力量，並為大灣區乃至全球的藝術文化交流作出貢獻。

“AVANT-GARDE” INNOVATIVE MULTIMEDIA ART ASSOCIATION (MACAU)

“Avant-garde” Innovative Multimedia Art Association (Macau) was established in 2019 as a non-profit organization comprising curators, artists, cultural communicators, and other professionals. Rooted in the Greater Bay Area of China, the association is dedicated to fostering the international development of Macau’s art scene.

Through collaborations with global art institutions, curators, and artists, “Avant-garde” organizes workshops, lectures, seminars, and other activities that encourage innovation, experimentation, and the exploration of new forms of multimedia art. The association actively participates in international exhibitions, art festivals, and cultural exchange programs, helping artists gain international exposure and establish connections within the global art community. By doing so, it seeks to inject vitality, possibilities, and forward-thinking development into Macau’s arts and cultural landscape.

The term "Avant-garde" originated in 19th-century Paris, then the world's art capital. Artists of the time, deeply influenced by the Enlightenment and various artistic, social, and cultural movements, sought to break new ground in art and culture, embracing experimental and visionary creations. The avant-garde spirit represents cultural pioneers who challenge conventions and shape the future through their work. This concept redefined beauty under modernist thought, allowing creativity to flow freely beyond rigid aesthetic norms. By the early 20th century, any profound spiritual expression could be considered art, liberating artists from conventional thinking and aesthetic stereotypes.

Inspired by this pioneering spirit, "Avant-garde" aims to broaden artistic and cultural horizons while expanding creative possibilities. The association’s core mission is to provide an international platform for Macau artists and elevate Macau’s presence in the global art scene. By fostering cross-cultural exchanges in the Greater Bay Area and beyond, "Avant-garde" aspires to be a driving force in the development of Macau’s artistic and cultural landscape.
