About GOOD COMPANY

GOOD COMPANY is an alternative distribution agency that promotes the positioning and progression of artists.

GOOD COMPANY guides and represents artists in the Belgian field and/or various international contexts. It is a non-profit organization that has received structural operating subsidies from the Flemish government since January 2023.

Since its inception, GOOD COMPANY has striven to redefine distribution: away from a market-oriented approach towards a more holistic one, in which the artist becomes stronger and the artistic field is enriched.

GOOD COMPANY builds bridges for its artists: from the inception of an artistic idea to the final act. An artistic trajectory at GOOD COMPANY lasts an average of 8 to 10 years, with 4 or 5 productions being supervised per artist.

In concrete terms, this knowledge sharing concerns the expertise in the distribution of transdisciplinary work within the general consultation platform of C-TAKT and through coaching. They coach young C-TAKT artists, which can lead to presentations at COMPANY KITCHEN, an inspirational day full of unfinished work that attaches just as much value to the follow-up discussion as to the presentation. The focus of that day is the research of the core artists and young artists who are coached. The aim is to facilitate the dialogue that precedes a project application. And that is necessary: ​​focusing the research and finding a common language are the key to giving wings to work that does not fit into boxes. COMPANY KITCHEN makes a practice visible and initiates dialogue. The day is structured around five presentations with an extensive substantive follow-up discussion. The audience consists of artists, students of art and culture mediation, potential co-producers and programmers.
