Since 2012, the platform Beeldende Kunst Arnhem (BKA) has represented all professional visual arts institutions in Arnhem (from large to small). This platform—legally established under Stichting Productiehuis Plaatsmaken—aims to increase attention and market interest for visual art among the public and businesses. BKA platform does this by identifying opportunities and responding with original projects and joint marketing. The Beeldende Kunst Arnhem network seeks to connect professional institutions and organizations in the visual arts. It works together in communication and presentation to the public. The platform collaborates closely with Beeldende Kunst Nijmegen.
