Incart consists of two projects managers: Antoni Garreta y David Campaner (both fine artists). They founded the Inquietart organization, which was born with the goal of promoting art in the city of Inca, Majorca. Some other artists join to this initiative in order to create INCART.
The goal of this organization is to encourage culture by a specific project: INCART. So that, artists can be the main character of a festival in which art is shown from all its possible disciplines. It is for that reason that the artists take the reins of the project in collaboration with the Culture Area of the Inca Town Hall in order to create a diverse cultural exhibition. INCART is offering the artists several spaces for exhibiting their works during the festival and is giving the possibility to the visitors to share and join contemporary art without intermediaries.

INCART is an annual exhibition which has taken place during eight editions. It has a duration of three weeks. The main philosophy is the use of places in disuse, both public and private where the artist must adapt and conceive his work. Consequently, the places are plural and it can be a place ready to make exhibitions or even private places like industrial units in disuse, particular houses or business buildings. In each edition the number of participants varies, both in its origin and its discipline; but the number vary between 50 and 70 participants. The expositive format is also diverse because of the exhibitions or individual and collective contributions.
Relative to the number of visitants, it has increased in the different editions and they have about 1,000-1,500 visits. It is a more than acceptable number taking into account that Inca is a small and post-industrial city which is located in the interior of Majorca. It also has around 30,000 inhabitants. During these eight years the impact of the festival inside the island has been gathering strength, because it was the first festival with this profile in our geography. This fact has supposed the appearance of several similar festivals generating a flow of artists who go over the island.
