Cluster Collaborations
United Cowboys is developing so called cluster collaborations together with international partner organisations abroad. The aim is to find sustainable ways to research, develope and perform art in collaboration internationally, creating fruitful ground for artistic interventions along the way.
United Cowboys is currently co-shaping collaborations in the following regions in Europe:
Spain (Mallorca / Ripoll / Barcelona)
Easter Europe (Hungary, Czech Republic)
United Cowboys is embarking towards a new era of artistic development and International Collaboration.
The 30 years experience as a live-art collective prepared them well to take the next step in growing as an artistic entity but also as a collective of artists, researchers and influencers. United Cowboys as a cluster of experiences will transform itself in a way that allows more space for interventions, collaboration and curation.
