Target Foundation sets up internet television station CULTURETV*


Rotterdam,The Netherlands, 13 june 2005 –
Target Foundation has set up an internet television station. CULTURETV will be officially launched on the 15th of June and can be seen daily on the CULTURETV website. This makes it the first daily station which has been produced especially for culture and art.

CULTURETV features a number of themes which are updated with new television items on a weekly/daily basis and which can be viewed 24 hours a day on the internet.

CULTURETV will be an independent channel and is the only global 24/7 TV network dedicated to Culture, Art and New media.

*Watching TV on your computer*
CULTURETV was developed by Target Foundation in cooperation with artists, Artupdate, Clipstream and ACM Europe. Marjan van Mourik, former gallery-owner and founder of Target Foundation: "With CULTURETV we are meeting the current needs of the internet user and creative people. The content is available via internet 24/7. At the same time we are creating a platform with interesting possibilities for artists, gallery-owners, art lovers a.o. Not only they will be informed of the latest art news but also they can collaborate by submitting short videos with content for the channel".

*The aim*
The aim of CULTURETV is to provide an interactive and dynamic online content for internet users in order to give an unbiased insight into the current state of the cultural world.

Marjan van Mourik, explains the potential of the concept: "The art and internet landscape are changing. The latest developments show that numerous initiatives are being started in using internet. With CULTURETV we demonstrate what is possible and we offer a world full of new experiences for the enthusiastic viewer. We make intensive use of the possibilities of video and internet, combined with content which is optimised for the platform being used. Personally, I find it challenging too, to develop new forms of communicating, marketing and distributing art".
