In perioada 16-21 Octombrie 2005, *Visiting Arts UK* cu sprijinul *Fundatiei
Ratiu* din Marea Britanie au organizat " UK curators trip to Romania ". Sase
curatori din Marea Britanie au vizitat cateva centre artistice din Romania
(Bucuresti, Iasi , Cluj), insotiti de Ramona Mitrica - director al Fundatiei
Ratiu UK , Simona Nastac - curator si membru fondator al Asociatiei *
e-cart.ro* si Nansi O'Connor - arts manager *Visiting Arts*. Pe site-ul
www.e-cart.ro/curators puteti citi acum seria de interviuri pe care Simona
Nastac le-a luat curatorilor participanti, precum si prezentarea
proiectului, a institutiilor vizitate in Romania si a Fundatiei Ratiu UK.
Versiunea prezentata pe site este in limba engleza. O versiune in limba
romana va aparea in curand intr-un supliment al « Revistei 22 ».

In continuarea acestui proiect, Asociatia *e-cart.ro* impreuna cu Centrul
Cultural Romanesc din Londra si cu sprijinul Fundatiei Ratiu Marea Britanie
organizeaza in perioada 14-19 ianuarie 2007 « Romanian curators trip to
London ». Un numar de sase curatori din Romania vor fi selectati pentru o
calatorie de cercetare la Londra, unde vor vizita institutii de arta
contemporana si vor avea intalniri si discutii cu profesionisti (curatori,
critici, artisti) de acolo. Speram ca aceasta vizita va constitui o
oportunitate pentru curatorii romani nu doar de a se familiariza cu scena de
arta contemporana londoneza, dar si de a initia colaborari directe cu
institutii ale acesteia.

Cheltuielile de transport, cazare si per diem vor fi acoperite de Fundatia
Ratiu. Curatorii participanti vor fi insotiti de Raluca Voinea, care va
organiza agenda si va inlesni intalnirile cu profesionistii londonezi. O
dupa-amiaza de discutii informale va avea loc la Centrul Cultural Romanesc
din
Londra, unde curatorii din Romania se vor intalni cu prieteni si
colaboratori, romani si britanici, ai Centrului si ai Fundatiei Ratiu.
Curatorul
Dr Mike Phillips (Tate), consultantul pentru acest proiect al Fundatiei
Ratiu, va organiza o vizita speciala.

Curatorii stabiliti in Romania care sunt interesati de a participa sunt
rugati sa trimita aplicatiile pana la data de 20 noiembrie 2006 pe adresa :

Raluca Voinea, Str. Tineretului 28, Campina 105600 Prahova, Romania

conceput de catre aplicant.

Pot participa curatori de arta contemporana, indiferent de nationalitate,
care au domiciliul stabil in Romania de mai mult de 3 ani.

La intoarcerea in Romania, participantilor li se va cere sa scrie un scurt
raport despre aceasta vizita.

Selectia va fi facuta de Raluca Voinea, Mike Phillips si un reprezentant al

Visiting Arts UK with the support of the Ratiu Family Foundation UK
organised between 16-21 October 2005 "UK Curators trip to Romania". Six
curators based in the UK visited a few art centres in Romania (Bucharest,
Iasi, Cluj), accompanied by Ramona Mitrica - director of the Ratiu
Foundation, Simona Nastac - curator and founding member of
*e-cart.ro*association, and Nansi O'Connor - arts manager Visiting
Arts UK. You can
read now on the website

www.e-cart.ro/curators the series of interviews made by Simona Nastac with
the participating curators, as well as the presentation of the project, of
the visited institutions and of the Ratiu Foundation UK. The version
presented on the website is in English. A version in Romanian will be
published soon in a supplement of the weekly magazine "Revista 22".

In the sequel to this project, *e-cart.ro* Association, together with the
Romanian Cultural Centre London, supported by the Ratiu Family Foundation UK
will organise "Romanian curators trip to London" between 14-19 January 2007.
Six curators from Romania will be selected for a research trip to London,
where they will visit contemporary art institutions and will have
appointments with local professionals (curators, critics, artists). We hope
this trip will be an opportunity for the Romanian curators not only to
familiarize themselves with the London contemporary art scene, but also to
initiate direct collaborations with professionals and institutions from
there.

The Ratiu Foundation will cover travel, accommodation and per diem. The
participating curators will be accompanied by Raluca Voinea, who will
organise the agenda and facilitate appointments with London-based
professionals. An afternoon of informal discussions will take place at the
Romanian Cultural Centre in London, where the participants will meet
Romanian and British friends and collaborators of the RCC and Ratiu
Foundation. Curator Dr Mike Phillips (Tate), the Ratiu Family Foundation's
consultant to the project, will organise a special visit.

Curators based in Romania who are interested in participating are asked to
send applications by post, until 20 November 2006, at the following address:

Raluca Voinea, Str. Tineretului 28, Campina 105600 Prahova, Romania

Or by e-mail at: ecart.ro la gmail.com

Applications will consist of the following documents, written in English:

-          filled in application form (see attachment);

-          curriculum vitae;

-          motivation letter;

-          documentation of a curatorial project, realised or just conceived
by the applicant.

This call is open for contemporary art curators, of any nationality, who are
based in Romania for more than 3 years.

On the return to Romania, participants will be asked to submit a short
report about this trip.

Selection will be made by Raluca Voinea, Mike Phillips and a Ratiu
Foundation representative. The results will be communicated in writing to
the selected curators, at the beginning of December. The applications which
are not selected will be kept for future references and collaborations.
