A network of people involved in research on contemporary art in Central Europe
Join our team. We are looking for researchers and curators who take up various aspects of the art of the region, present art from various perspectives; focus in their work on both local issues and multilateral artistic and cultural relations throughout the region, as well as cross-border relations between countries; conduct basic research and interpretative research; comparative studies; use research and artistic methodologies.
As our project has educational goals, we are looking for academic teachers who already teach or can organize courses on the art of Central Europe.
As part of museum inquiries and cooperation with collection curators and archivists, we are trying to distinguish collections of contemporary art from Central Europe in the existing collections.
