The art world is international in the extreme. Various members of the Society of Arts live and work outside the Netherlands regularly, or come from abroad. The Society wishes to place more emphasis on this international network. It did so in 2020 by joining the European Alliance of Academies, a network dedicated to defending the concept of an open society and artistic freedom in Europe. The Society also wishes to focus on developments in and its relationship with the rest of the world.

in containing the climate crisis, the arts are vital in helping to turn complex facts into narratives that spur people to take action and to visualise alternative futures and creative solutions. How can we depict something as momentous as the collapse of ecosystems? How can we engage with people in a way that prompts them to reflect and take action? To answer these and other questions, the Society of Arts works closely with the Royal Academy and The Young Academy.

One of the key tasks of the Society of Arts is to foster the relationship between the arts and the sciences. In partnership with The Young Academy and the Royal Academy, the Society endeavours to promote cross-fertilisation between the arts and the sciences and to increase support for transdisciplinary collaborations between the arts, the sciences and society. Together with partners in the field, it is committed to building and organising a permanent national infrastructure that functions as a meeting place for the arts and the sciences, as an experimental habitat, and as a potential funding option.

The sciences 

The Society wishes to draw attention to the debate on intersectional inequality in the art world and society in general, and endeavours to make its membership and activities inclusive and an accurate reflection of society.  The Society of Arts believes in the importance of solidarity, diversity, sustainability, trust and transparency in safeguarding the essential role and significance of the arts in society. It sees this not solely as a matter of cultural or ethnic background but also of gender, sexual orientation, age, knowledge, disability, social class, caste, and so on.

Intersectionality

The Society of Arts keeps a close eye on the government’s arts & culture policy and, where necessary, expresses its opinions and offers advice. It often does this in tandem with other parties in the arts and culture sector, including Kunsten ’92, the Waag Society and the Council for Culture. By contributing to the public debate, it also communicates the importance of the arts and culture for other policy topics, for example climate change, spatial planning, social inequality and health.
