Cave edit info

CAVE is an artists' collective, gallery-performance space and arts organization. Founded in 1996 and organized as a non-profit organization in 2004, CAVE is now one of the longest running experimental art spaces in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn, NY. Our constant goal is to maintain an environment that attracts, provokes and supports exchange, generative confrontation and collaboration among emerging and established artists and audiences from diverse cultures and artistic backgrounds. CAVE strives to provide an explorative arena and support system for the artistic development of its resident artists by hosting studio workspace, educational workshops, exhibition and performance opportunities and assistance in the realization of projects that support risk taking in the in visual, media and performing arts.

Our intention is based on the idea that people learn and are transformed through direct experiences that potentially awaken new levels of understanding and knowledge. CAVE is led by video artist/curator Shige Moriya and theater-dance director/dancer Ximena Garnica.


The world is realized through experience, discovered through questioning, and changed by action.
