transpublic, the open atelier was founded in November 2000 by Hans Kropshofer as a self-organised trial-arrangement, with the aim develop in a process.
In the city centre of Linz the project room which is the basic element of transpublic forms the centre for artistic practice and the hub of cross-branch fields of interest, which works on questions and methods in the context between the arts, the public, production and place.
A central idea of this form of atelier is to connect different disciplines and media with each other, thus providing a dynamic "trade centre" of expanded forms of artistic exchange and spheres for action. This system of provided resources, information, communication and presentation possibilities generates a setting which is available to the interested public, artists and visionaries, who are transcending borders.
That way transpublic represents a perfomative module for regional and supra-regional cooperations, trying strategies and parallel models to the mechanisms and conditions of commercial arts activities.
