The Helsinki International Curatorial Programme currently offers curatorial residencies in Helsinki for international visual arts curators.
The application process is on-going and applications are accepted throughout the year. The jury reviewing the applications meets at least twice a year. Applications should be sent by November 1st or May 1st to qualify for review at the following meeting.
The aim of the programme is to provide curators with an opportunity to carry out research on Finnish fine art, to build contacts with Finnish art practitioners and cultural organisations and to develop international curatorial projects involving Finnish participants.
Curatorial residencies include the cost of travel to and from Helsinki with a grant for living expenses, studio accommodation, residency services, administrative support and practical assistance for the participant's curatorial project all provided by HIAP. A small public event (workshop, lecture, open meeting, etc) will also be organized during the residency.
The length of the curatorial residency is usually one calendar month.
APPLICATIONS
Applications should include presentation materials of the applicant's previous projects, a curriculum vitae, a working plan for the residency period and a proposal for a public event to be organised during the residency.
Applications should be submitted by post. Please note that all electronic material should be compatible with both Mac and PC computers and readable by common office software. Application materials are not returned.
