Text:: New webpages are under construction, with the old ones finally removed (this was the responsibiltiy of OSI Croatia). New webpages will include a searchable database of Croatian artists, institutions and events. Coming soon! ICA-Zagreb is initiating an art magazine, with a pilot issue to appear by the end of 2001. Collaboration as a partner institution of BIG Torino 2002 continues - currently they are opening new cycle of competititon. One of the bigest projects is the FACE Program Description FACE Croatia is designed to provide grants to support the broadening of public awareness of and appreciation for Croatian art and culture, and to encourage the growth of Croatian arts philanthropy in both Croatia and the United States. Program Goals and Priorities Established by the Heathcote Art Foundation on January 11, 2000 to commemorate the birthday of its founder, Josephine Mercy Heathcote, FACE Croatia will support select arts and culture projects in Croatia and foster the exchange of professional contemporary artists between Croatia and the United States. FACE Croatia is designed to encourage tax deductible (for U.S. tax payers) donor advised contributions from private and public sources including individuals, private foundations, corporations and public sector donors. FACE Croatia maintains an active database of information on Croatian artists, arts and culture organizations and their needs to enable donors to select projects of type, scope, and location suitable to their interests. Donors are not restricted to giving opportunities listed in the database and may use FACE Croatia to fund independent projects which fall within FACE Croatia's overall mission. The Role of the Heathcote Art Foundation The Heathcote Art Foundation is a private grant-giving foundation established in New York in 1964 which supports arts organizations that assist emerging artists of promise and those which promote the creation of new and innovative work across a broad spectrum of artistic disciplines. Heathcote has made a commitment to support FACE Croatia on an ongoing basis. FACE Croatia grants funded by Heathcote will reflect the foundation's central mission to support emerging artists and will be restricted geographically to eligible organizations in Zagreb and Dubrovnik in Croatia, and New York based arts organizations in the United States. The Role of Arts International Arts International promotes and supports connections and interchange in the visual and performing arts and informs audiences and the public about the richness and diversity of cultural production worldwide. Arts International's current advised funds and regranting programs include private and public partnerships with The Ford Foundation, The James Irvine Foundation, National Endowment for the Arts, The Pew Charitable Trusts, The Rockefeller Foundation, Trust for Mutual Understanding, U.S. Department of State, and individual contributors to the arts worldwide, and as manager of FACE Croatia, the Heathcote Art Foundation.
