About image inside

Established in 2013 by Dina Baitassova, Indira Dyussebayeva and Laurent Lehmann, International Art Development Association (IADA) is a non-governmental and non-profit organisation, dedicated to supporting and promoting contemporary art from Kazakhstan and from Central Asia more broadly. As one of the primary actors in its integration into the global art world, IADA aims to encourage cultural exchanges and organizes artistic events around the world, with the focus on Europe. IADA’s philosophy is rooted in an awareness of the pivotal role of culture in development strategy, and of art in the positioning of a new regional identity.

IADA – Project

IADA’s mission focuses on building a network of cultural partnerships, linking Kazakh artists to institutions but also to art markets. The organisation acts in accordance with the recognition of an aesthetic specificity of this region on the international art scene.
