Be My Medici patronage platform – Curator Call

This is our Open Call to Curators interested in working with the Be My Medici online patronage platform launching later this year. With an exclusive focus on the visual arts, this will be a curated platform ensuring coherence of vision and discoverability for the participating artists. Under the model we propose artists will be sending small scale original artworks to their patrons in return for their support. Therefore the platform will have a focus on disciplines that can result in small scale two dimensional physical artwork such as drawing, painting and collage. Other than that we aim to offer a broad selection of approaches to art to our patrons.

Applicants should submit a resume, a one-page cover letter describing interest and experience, and the address of their website or online portfolio of projects, if available. Interested curators can apply by filling in the form on our website, where they can also learn more about the patronage model we propose.

Those chosen to join the platform's curatorial team will naturally have the chance to review the terms of collaboration in detail before joining. This is a commission-based opportunity.

The call is open to curators internationally.

Closing date for applications is June 15, 2016.
