Geração de Amanhã Associação

Geração de Amanhã- GDA (The Generation of Tomorrow - Association) was founded in 2011 in Terceira Island (Azores), functioning in the first instance in the social sphere.

> Main projects

RE_ACT CONTEMPORARY ART LABORATORY
Artistic residency program, which works throughout the Azores Archipelago, based on Terceira Island, where it has a final presentation at the Angra do Heroísmo Museum (MAH). The residency explores notions of ecology, myth and technology on this unique location in the North mid-Atlantic ocean. Taking the form of a laboratory accompanied by artistic processes and curatorial experimentation the artists and curators will be invited to begin or develop ideas presenting afterwards the results of this process in an institutional context.

RE.FUNCTION
