ETNA Foundation is an independent, non-governmental, 
non-profit organization, established by UTO Gusztav 
in Sepsiszentgyorgy/Sf. Gheorghe, Transylvania region, Romania.
The goal of 
the ETNA Foundation is to support alternative art,  facilitate 
personal contact among artists in the country and abroad; 
in a larger sense, to contribute to the shaping of a social 
environment which favours the development of experimental arts.

ETNA Foundation  regularly organizes international exhibitions, 
festivals, meetings and evenings, such as  

- MEDIUM Exhibition (every three years, in Sf. Gheorghe; the last 
edition organised in 1997 as MEDIUM 4 International Exhibition of
Living Art Documentation)

- AnnART Festival (annually in July, St. Ann Lake; since 1990 eight  
editions have been organized, with the participation of 104 artists 
from 25 countries)

- SEPSI Living Art Meeting (annually in April, Sf. Gheorghe; 
each year with the participation of 10-12 artists from Romania)

- ARES artist-in-residence project (every two-three months; the 
project has been started this year; for the moment we can provide 
board and lodging at host families; the first invited artist, 
Julie-Andree T. from Canada elaborated and presented two performances 
and a project with children in February)

- ELO-TEKA (Living-Archives) video-evening (weekly; presentation 
of the Etna Documentation Center s video material)
