Alt Esc Platform

Alt Esc is a Brooklyn-based curatorial/digital platform and events team that focuses on bringing well curated content within visual arts, new media, and technology to the wider audience. We organize large-scale events featuring new media and installation artists, performers and DJs, and brand partnerships. We release a monthly digital publication along with an annual print. Sparked by the realization that disparity exists between the institutionalized art world and the new wave of rising artists, Alt Esc was founded to vocalize the leading ideas and trends in young contemporary studio practice. We are interested in individuals and collectives who are players in the art world’s subcultural framework and those who are community oriented. Equal parts publication and event production team, we seek to communicate dialogues that manifest into praxis. Through publication and curating exhibitions, we strive to connect rising artists with new opportunities, while honoring and sharing their current achievements with a broader audience. Using the studio visit as a model for a narrative, we hope to communicate, foster and archive today’s young cultural landscape.
