Deadline: March 2, 2018

The Canadian Centre for Architecture’s (CCA) Emerging Curator Program is now open for applications. The Emerging Curator Program offers the opportunity to propose and curate a project at the CCA related to contemporary debates in architecture, urban issues, landscape design, and cultural and social dynamics. The project is to be developed during a residency of three months at the CCA.

The CCA encourages a wide range of proposals for curatorial projects with a broad scope. Proposals must bring an innovative curatorial model to the contemporary discourse on architecture. The CCA seeks proposals that use the curatorial project as a tool to foster ideas, to question relevant positions, to introduce new research themes, and to critique current modalities, with the ultimate goal of advancing new thinking for architecture and the built environment. Particular attention will be given to projects that intend to locate the discourse of architecture within a broader context across disciplines and practices.

The selected candidate will become acquainted with the CCA’s institutional knowledge and vision, explore the institution’s resources and the collection holdings, and apply her/his curatorial direction to develop the proposed project. The CCA will provide guidance towards the project’s realization in accordance with the curatorial direction of the institution.

The residency should take place between September 2018 and May 2019 and can be divided into several sessions. The project should be completed by fall 2019.

Benefits

  • The recipient will receive a maximum of $12,000 CAN to cover travel, housing, and living expenses for a period of up to three months in Montreal (subject to the income tax laws of Canada and Quebec).

The agreement will be effective only after the applicant has obtained all required authorization from the immigration authorities of both Quebec and Canada.

Eligibility

  • Open to Architects, journalists, designers, critics, historians, photographers, artists, and other scholars and professionals born on or after 1 January 1982 are eligible for this program, regardless of citizenship and place of residence.
  • All submissions must be new projects, never presented, published, or realized before.
  • The scope of the project and specific timing of the residency will be determined in consultation with the Chief Curator, CCA.
  • No more than one project per applicant will be accepted.
  • The languages in use at the CCA are English and French.
  • Collective or collaborative projects are welcome; however, only one person will be eligible for the residency to realize the project on behalf of the group.

Selection Criteria

The CCA will select a project according to the following criteria: originality of the curatorial statement and approach, relevance to architectural thinking and practice, expertise and trajectory of the candidate, feasibility, and relevance to the curatorial direction and vision of the CCA.

Application

Applications should be submitted through the CCA online application portal and consist of the following documents and information, in English or French (in a PDF file of up to 5 MB maximum):

1) A curatorial statement (1,500 to 2,000 words, with no more than ten images), including the description of the project and strategic justification. The document must also include a plan and a working schedule;

2) A curriculum vitae detailing education, research and professional experience, working languages, and any other relevant information;

3) A representative selection of a few realized projects that convey an impression of the candidate’s distinctive approach;

4) Contact information for two academic or professional references who are familiar with the candidate and his or her work.

The CCA will notify all applicants by May 2018. For more information, please write to [email protected].
