CuratorLab - Curatorial Program for Professionals in Arts, Crafts and Design

Applications are accepted once a year, to enter in September 2011.
The application deadline for 2011/2012 is April 4th, 2011.

CuratorLab is an international self-directed curatorial course dedicated
to the advancement of curatorial practices based on research in the arts,
crafts and design. It is designed to offer time to conduct research and to
explore new directions and ideas in order to develop artistic or
theoretical work while linking academic study to cultural projects.

The program offers the participants the possibility to develop and realize
one individual and/or collaborative project in the form of a public
presentation, i.e. exhibition, lecture series, publication, screenings,
seminar, for which CuratorLab provides professional feedback and practical
support as well as a moderate research/production budget. 
The final
form, and where it will be presented, is decided by each participant in
dialogue with his or her personal advisor.

CuratorLab will arrange guest lectures by professionals in the field, and
provides each participant access to the faculties across Konstfack’s
departments, visiting curators, critics and practitioners, and be welcomed
into graduate seminars and classes.

Dependant on the individual aims and research topics of the participants
the faculty will assist in contacting art institutions to arrange
lectures, to set up meetings with professionals in the field, as well as
schedule studio visits with artists and designers in the Nordic region.

Participants will be introduced to Konstfack’s Nordic and
international network in arts, design and craft.

Participants are encouraged to organize public presentations within
Konstfack and other institutions, in the form of discussions, lectures,
screenings, or seminars, for which they will receive support by the
faculty.

Konstfack provides each participant with a shared office space including
telephone, Internet and other amenities, and access to local research
libraries.

Applications are accepted once a year, to enter in September 2011. The
program is flexible. It can be divided over different intervals over the
academic year and it is not required to be based in Stockholm full time.
The final schedule will be determined during the first meeting in
Stockholm in September.

Language
The program is international and all seminars are in English.
