Amant is a non-profit arts organization in Brooklyn, NY, founded in 2019. We are a non-collecting learning institution, which gives us the freedom to focus on experimentation, process, and dialogue through exhibitions, public programs, and artist residencies.

Through our Study Lines, we share the main threads in our various programs and ways of working. The Study Lines also shape our future thinking. For this reason, our exhibitions tend to unfold over longer time periods; we conceive of them as chapters or installments that gradually connect to each other. Our current Study Lines are Hearing Voices and Love Expanded Love Extended.

By organizing our work around these Study Lines, we pay close attention to the contexts that have shaped the practices we engage with and we aim to add additional interpretations from our own context by opening up the range of conversations.

Our main method of engagement with our collaborators, colleagues, and audiences is through learning, an ongoing process that depends on awareness, attention, curiosity, and a realization that knowledge comes in multiple forms, languages, and experiences. We are committed to building cultural partnerships, in the U.S. and abroad, while activating new and ongoing conversations with our local communities.

Amant is a nonprofit 501©(3) organization and has been certified by W.A.G.E.
