Curator – in – Residence Program Accepting Applicants

Disjecta Contemporary Art Center is accepting proposals for a Curatorin-Residence for its 2016-2017 exhibition season.

Disjecta houses an expansive exhibition space for the presentation of visual and performing arts at the regional, national and international level that speaks to the region’s diverse interests, talents and identities.

The CIR program provides an opportunity for emerging curatorial talent to develop and expand the scope of their practice through a one-year residency. Curators actively engage with a broad range of artists to create a series of exhibitions in Disjecta’s dynamic 3,500-square-foot space.

Throughout the season (September 2016 through April 2017) the Curator-in-Residence will organize four to six exhibitions. The nature of Disjecta’s exhibition space and mission facilitate contemporary work that is installation-based, specific to the site or project-based—though these should not be considered limitations. Disjecta encourages artists and guest curators to challenge themselves and viewers, to take intelligent risks, and to expand definitions of disciplines.

Proposals are due to Disjecta by Friday, April 17, 2015 Midnight PST. Please forward application materials to Bryan Suereth at bryan@disjecta.org. Qualified candidates will be contacted in May. No phone calls please.
