The aim of the project is to provide an opportunity for art historians, artists and others interested in curatorial practices in contemporary art to gain practical knowledge in this area.<\/p>\n<p>The candidate or collective will be selected through the public call and will have an opportunity to gain practical knowledge of curating through putting up an exhibition under the mentorship of the two experienced curators active in the local art scene for years. <b>The call is open to all those who want to have curatorial experience, regardless of their educational background.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Having in mind the absence of this kind of programs in the formal educational system, this platform represents a catalyst for the support and development of local curatorial practices focused on concrete and hands-on experience of putting up an exhibition project. The project aims to raise awareness of the need for new forms of support for those curators at the beginning of their solo careers who need infrastructural and organizational support and mentoring while producing their first curatorial programs. An important element of the project is mentorship of the selected curator or curatorial collective focused especially on: preparing the exhibition, selecting artists, planning and realizing the exhibition, budgeting, producing artworks, additional fundraising, writing promotional texts, conceptualizing and implementing the opening event and the supporting program, and final reporting.<\/p>\n<p>In the previous installments of the program NOVAci, the selected candidates were <strong>Tena Star\u010devi\u0107<\/strong> who curated the exhibition <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whw.hr\/program\/rad-nered-i-samodisciplina-nevidljivo-djelovanje-radnica-i-radnika-u-kulturi\/\"><em>Rad, (ne)red i (samo)disciplina<\/em> <\/a>in Gallery Nova at the end of 2021,<strong> Antonela Soleni\u010dki<\/strong> who curated the exhibition <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whw.hr\/program\/novaci-na-vrhu-jezika\/\"><em>Na vrhu jezika<\/em><\/a> at the end of 2022, and <strong>Teuta Gatolin<\/strong> with the exhibition <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whw.hr\/program\/luana-lojic-i-nina-kurtela-obrnute-vjestine\/\"><em>Obrnute vje\u0161tine<\/em><\/a> in December 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The call is open for future curators or curatorial collectives from Croatia who currently have no significant curatorial experience. Special attention will be given to the applications with intermedia and interdisciplinary approach that actively focus on the exhibition as a medium. <strong>The call is not thematically limited, but special attention will be given to the applications that support the work of young local artists, the projects that examine the relationship between art and ecology, as well as those that include queer and feminist artistic practices.<\/strong> The budget includes fees for the curator and artists, material costs of production, fees for other associates, security staff and other costs related to the production of the exhibition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The application should include:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u25b8 Information on the curator\/collective: Name\/s of the curator\/s, address, telephone and email of (one) of the curators, biographies of all curators<br \/>\n\u25b8 Textual\/visual contribution: Explication of the concept and the theme, including the exhibition title, that the curator would like to develop in the exhibition including but not limited to the list of artists (up to 4 artists) and selected works (2 pages), supporting visuals (up to 5)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Deadline for submissions is Friday, April 05, 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Submissions are made through <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSdxzF6ISHEtzcA5V4LsGvPB8cMiOWWqyNdEz7RXsMUkeXKWRA\/viewform\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this form<\/a>, and the questions related to the call can be sent to the email: <a href=\"mailto:ana.kovacic.whw@gmail.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ana.kovacic.whw@gmail.com<\/a>.
