ARKAD is a non-profit Foundation, founded in 2002 by the artists Cynthia Sah and Nicolas Bertoux.
The Foundation is based in Seravezza, in the facilities of Studio ARTCO, in the historic marble sawmill adjacent to the Palazzo Mediceo.
The aim of the Foundation is to establish an intercultural centre to foster artistic projects, organise exhibitions and events, transmit technical skills, encourage the meeting of artistic experiences in the broad field of contemporary art, and create links with the main local and international artistic events.
The Foundation's activities are supported by members' contributions, through annual membership renewals, and donations from sponsors.
