    From Collector to Founder: Elisa Nuyten on Building The Vega Foundation

    From Collector to Founder: Elisa Nuyten on Building The Vega Foundation In this episode, I sat down with Elisa Nuyten, founder of The Vega Foundation, a Toronto-based organization dedicated to artists' film and video. I speak to Elisa about what her foundation does - supporting a medium that many of us love but that often exists in the margins of the art world. We talk about her journey from collector to foundation founder, including the practical realities of launching a foundation - the building blocks, the governance structures, and why she chose Toronto and Canada as home base. I ask her about specific works from her collection that have shaped how she approaches the arts today, and why she felt compelled to focus specifically on moving image practices despite - or perhaps because of - the challenges this medium presents for collecting and display. We talk about how the Vega Foundation has evolved over its first three years, the psychology of supporting experimental work, the unseen infrastructure that makes artists' film and video possible, and so much more.
