The objectives of the project must include a specific focus on the community itself and the dissemination of the knowledge being generated, resulting in a project that creates opportunities for others. The fundamental value of the project’s presence at Hangar will be based on what it gives back to the community that surrounds the centre. Therefore, projects must display a willingness to serve and support the artistic and core communities of the centre and conduct their work through practices that are realistic and ethically viable from a cultural, social and economic standpoint.
In short, the concept of community and commonality is a fundamental pillar of the Hangar’s resident projects, they must therefore be able to find a way to resonate with the community or to build a new one. The other pillar is the generation and transference of knowledge by allowing artists and other users to access said knowledge and through the creation of learning communities.
