The YEMAA Centre for Contemporary Culture and the Goethe Institute in Kazakhstan have announced an open call for Kazakhstan's first online school for young curators, Curator in the Face of Crisis.
The program of the school is designed to provide young curators with the tools to create independent, socially relevant art and research projects. Additionally, the program will support participants in securing funding and the necessary infrastructure for their projects. The curriculum includes modules in writing, reading, storytelling, management and economics of contemporary art, history of thought, and organization of a research project.
The focus will be on the role and significance of curators during a multimodal crisis, using Kazakhstan's cultural field as a research object. The program is open to both experienced and novice curators, students studying art-related specialties, and other individuals interested in art curating. The age range for applicants is 22–45 years.
The school will be held from June 17th through 30th. At the end of the program, each participant will have a fully conceived personal art project, research, or exhibition concept. The best three curators will receive a grant of 1 million tenge to implement their exhibition or research projects in their cities.
