Career

[edit]

Often cited as a world leader in the field of arts and science,[1][2] Ariane Koek is best known for initiating and being the founder of Arts at CERN (2009 - 2015) – the first officially organised international arts programme by CERN – the world's leading particle physics laboratory, Geneva, Switzerland.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] She initiated the programme at CERN as part of her Clore Fellowship in 2009[12] and The Art Newspaper published the manifesto for the Arts at CERN.[13] She designed and directed the programme which includes the Collide artists residency programmes, Accelerate and Visiting Artists (now known as Guest Artists) for five years[14][15] and designed CERN's first cultural policy in 2011.[16] During her time at CERN she worked with over 78 artists, including the fashion designer Iris van Herpen who created her Spring/Summer Collection Magnetic Motion based on her CERN visit,[17][18][19] Anselm Kiefer,[20][21] the digital artist and musician Ryoji Ikeda who created two pieces inspired by his Collide residency - Supersymmetry and Micro - Macro,[22][23] and Julius von Bismarck who was the first Collide artist in residence.[24]

In 2008, Koek won a Clore Fellowship at the Clore Leadership Programme for her work in culture.[25] She did her secondments at CERN and at the Imperial War Museum, London. Prior to CERN, Koek was National Director of the Arvon Foundation for Creative Writing (2006-2008) and a BBC staff producer working in both radio and television (1990-2006). She commissioned and produced the last radio play by Anthony Minghella, Eyes Down Looking starring David Threlfall, Juliet Stevenson and Jude Law for the BBC ‘s Samuel Beckett Centenary. She also directed Nick Silver Can't Sleep by Janice Kerbel – the first collaboration between Artangel and the BBC. It starred Rufus Sewell, Josette Simon and Fiona Shaw and was the first piece to be bought by the Arts Council for its sound art collection.[26][27]

Since 2015 she has worked independently as a consultant, producer, curator and writer and on a variety of cultural projects with international organisations including the Exploratorium San Francisco, USA. In 2016 she was also Artist in residence at Nida Art Colony, Lithuania.[28] In 2021, she was invited as a Creative Director of CityxVenice - the virtual Italian official pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale - presenting Witness by the underwater artist Emma Critchley who was the first Earth Water Sky environmental arts and science resident. The piece which she produced and curated was world premiered in the official Italian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2021.[29][30] She has been also closely advising the Cavendish Arts Science Programme at Cambridge University for which she is a Creative Partner.[31]
