Njabala Foundation () is delighted to announce the collaboration with Independent Curators International (ICI) towards the ICI intensive in Kampala this August. ICI is a New York based organisation that focuses on the role of the curator in contemporary art. By connecting curators from different regions, backgrounds, and generations, and across social, political, and cultural borders, ICI provides an international framework for knowledge-sharing within which curators’ and artists’ practices can further develop.This planned Curatorial Intensive in Kampala will be the seventh in Africa since 2013, following past iterations in Johannesburg, Addis Ababa, Marrakesh, Dakar, Accra, and Cape Town.
The Curatorial Intensive in Kampala will draw from the vibrant artistic and intellectual production in East Africa, and focus on curatorial practices that promote the work of women, create support structures for artists adapted to their local contexts, and foster innovative thinking around what constitutes curatorial space beyond the conventional white cube, gallery, or museum.
The Curatorial Intensive, an eight-day professional development program, offers emerging curators the opportunity to discuss, among colleagues, the concepts, logistics, and challenges of organizing exhibitions, public programs, and other curatorial models. It is designed to immerse participants in a rigorous schedule of seminars, presentations, site visits, and one-on-one meetings that support the process of developing an idea for a project into a full proposal. The Curatorial Intensive is targeted toward self-motivated individuals at an early stage in their career, working independently or within institutions. It is a unique opportunity to forge a close network of peers and embark on future collaborations.
