International Curatorial Program by Node Center

INTERNATIONAL CURATORIAL PROGRAM
Ten Month Online Curriculum

The International Curatorial Program is an innovative ten month online curriculum that combines learning and practice for emerging curators of contemporary art. The dynamic program includes a tailored series of theoretical and practical courses, interactive live sessions with experts, and ongoing mentorship through group critiques.
Over 10 months we will focus on the two sides of curatorial practice: historical and conceptual knowledge including the creative development and research of a curatorial project; and practical skills for project management, exhibition design, fundraising, communication and handling curatorial procedures.

Throughout the program you will develop your own curatorial project supported by the expertise of dedicated lecturers who bring real-world experience and insights to the classroom. The vision of the program is to bring key curatorial skills and knowledge to future leaders in museums, film festivals, new media, galleries and other art and culture production industries.

*Video conferences every Wednesday at 7pm CET unless otherwise specified. Recordings will be available in case you miss a live session
