Overview

The corporation is an art collective that uses the visual arts as a tool for addressing global issues while connecting with artists from around the world. The corporation's mission is to exhibit art in the us and countries that have been or continue to be places of contention - sites of war, ethnic, social, political injustices and environmental challenges. The corporation works at the intersection of critical consciousness and contemporary artistic practice to influence change by going beyond the confines of the traditional or conventional art world, blurring the boundaries between art, activism and social practice.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work.
