ELECTRA is a London-based contemporary art agency. Our core activities are:

Commissioning, Producing, Exhibiting ambitious contemporary arts projects across a variety of media. On average Electra aims to produce one to two large scale projects per year.

Touring All of Electra commissioned projects are designed to be available for touring to international venues and festivals after the initial UK presentation. Much of our day to day work is spent setting up partnerships and seeking out touring opportunities in the UK and internationally. For any touring enquiries please contact linaATelectra-productions.com

Project Management and Production Electra works with independent curators and fellow organisations to project manage their initiatives which can benefit from Electra's expertise and infrastructure.

Guest Curating Electra's directors are regularly invited to guest curate projects, talks and events. We welcome ideas for the development of collaborative projects and joint initiatives with fellow organisations or independent curators.

Artists' Agent Electra acts as an agent to a small number of artists, assisting with strategic development of their work, promotion, seeking new opportunities, sales and distribution.

Electra's Study Archive Electra's office on Rosebery Avenue in Central London houses the Her Noise Archive, the first element in the development of a larger Electra Archive. Members of the public can make an appointment to use the Her Noise archive during weekdays between 10am and 6pm. The full contents of the archive will be listed online in 2007. To arrange to use the archive please contact ireneATelectra-productions.com

Education and Training Electra devises, produces and delivers lectures, symposia and training in collaboration with a range of partners. We work closely with higher and further education establishments, museums and fellow arts organizations to devise tailor made educational modules and materials. Recent initiatives in this area have included 'Sound And The 20th Century Avant Garde' lecture series with Tate Modern (later tailored and presented at the Numusic Festival in Stavanger, Norway in 2006) and 'Politics of Sound, Culture Of Exchange' Tate Modern (Online)

Electra Editions Electra publishes artists' limited editions whch usually accompany Electra-commissioned projects. In Autumn 2005 the first Electra Edition was produced. This was a limited edition box-set by Tony Oursler and Kim Gordon for the Perfect Partner project.
