FVTVRIST
Fvtvrist is independent media initiated between Paris and Madrid, created to reshape how contemporary art connects with its audiences. We propose a new model of interaction—one that enables deeper, more direct exchanges between artists, the public, professionals, and collectors.
This platform gives artists the agency to present their work on their own terms. Whether through text, visual projects, diaries, or unconventional formats, it’s a space for unmediated communication and authentic self-expression. Fvtvrist also investigates the evolving role of the artist—not only as a creator but as a curator, a researcher, and a catalyst for interdisciplinary dialogue. The projects we initiate aim to expand these roles and stimulate collaboration across disciplines. Beyond presentation, Fvtvrist serves as a foundation for future partnerships. We aim to build lasting connections—between artists, their audiences, and external collaborators—that will continue to evolve and take new forms.
WE DON’T JUST WRITE ABOUT ARTISTS.
WE GIVE THEM CARTE BLANCHE
TO CREATE & SHOWCASE THEIR OWN
PROJECTS IN THEIR OWN WORDS
AND MEDIUMS.
