curators

We work with independent curators to shape exhibitions, online recommendations, and long-term collaborations. Whether you have an idea for a physical group show, want to contribute to our Curators Pick programme, or explore a more experimental format - we’re always open to thoughtful proposals.
We’re looking for curators who are committed to artistic merit, who see value in working with emerging artists, and that understand the delicate relationship between concept, context, form and audience.

This format is ideal for curators with a sharp eye for individual works and a persuasive way with words
