Curators' Network: International research residencies

Madrid, Barcelona

Through its “Curators’ Network” initiative, hablarenarte: launches a call to select European contemporary-art professionals for research residencies in Madrid.

Calls directed at International Cultural Agents

The call is directed at all European cultural managers and promoters, curators, editors and journalists interested in gaining first-hand knowledge of the inner workings of the emerging Spanish contemporary artistic and cultural scene. A total of four residencies will be held in October and December, 2012 at Matadero Madrid, a center for contemporary creation. The international agents will spend three weeks in Spain where a series of appointments and events adopted to their interests will help them discover the network of contemporary culture relevant to their projects.

Four curators from Germany, Austria and Italy

The four curators selected by a professional jury are: Katharina Fichtner (DE), Karin Jaschke (AT), Anna Santomauro y Viviana Checchia (Vessel, IT).
