The Curatorial Program for Research (CPR) is pleased to announce its open call for curators to participate in CPR 2023: (Re)Presentation in the Nordics. In this program curators will travel to the Nordic region, visiting Finland, Norway and Sweden including Sápmi. CPR’s eighth fully-funded research program will take place from August 15 - September 10, 2023.

Hosted by local institutions, artists, and independent curators, the program gathers a cohort of up to eight international curators. The robust programming offers daily visits to artist studios and local arts institutions, and it is complemented by readings about local socio-political history, arts, and culture. The theme of the program is the complex issue of colonial history and present reality in the North today intertwined with aspects of sustainability and ecology. We will move towards an understanding of these issues together with artists working around these notions including indigenous and immigrant representation.

The selection committee is comprised of CPR Founding Director Carmen Ferreyra; Europe Director Susanne Ewerlöf; CPR2 Curator Natalia Viera Salgado with key specialists: Ruben Steinum (Director, Office for Contemporary Art, Norway), Lena Malm (Head of IASPIS Visual Arts Program), Ludvig Sjödin (Manager, Visual Artist Support Center, Norrbotten Region, Sweden), Ina Otzko (artist, Norway) and Jet Pascua (artist, Norway.)

Application Deadline: March 15th, 2023
