ART. 1 – PURPOSE

The Noi Vivi Arte project is aimed at artists and anyone with creative flair who wants to share their artistic contribution.

Anyone can submit their artistic creation: Noi Vivi Arte is dedicated to art, but not only to professional artists. The creative flair of every individual is a precious asset to be shared.

The project aims to promote and enhance art and creativity.

It is dedicated solely to artistic content in the strict sense, i.e., all expressions of creativity that are recognized as art forms in the media, materials, and methods typical of art, including contemporary art. Expressions that do not conform to the codes of art will therefore be excluded.

Regardless of the method of participation chosen, steelbloom guarantees that the works uploaded will remain visible on the platform for the entire duration of the project without any deadline or time limit. Only in the event of the closure of the project and the related web platform will the visibility and online permanence of all uploaded works end at the same time as the closure of the platform.

The project is promoted by steelbloom srl, a single-member company with registered office in Via Serena n. 18, San Martino Buon Albergo (VR), VAT number 05098840233, which may avail itself of the collaboration of partners and third parties for the implementation and promotion of related activities.

ART. 3 – WHO IT IS AIMED AT

Participation is open to all artists/creators (individuals or collectives) who are of legal age on the date of registration.

Depending on the option chosen, each artist/creator or collective of artists/creators can participate in the project by submitting a minimum of two works with free registration up to a maximum number of works that can be uploaded, which varies according to the subscription option chosen.
