Ecole du Magasin - Session 19
2009/2010

Founded in 1987, l'Ecole du Magasin was the first formation in Europe to propose a curatorial training program in contemporary art. The program is specialized in the coordination of artistic projects related to the exhibition, and relies on the activity of the art centre it is part of.

Organisation
L'Ecole du Magasin is a professional training program that lasts ten months, from end of September to July.The admission to l'Ecole du Magasin results of a call for application, followed by a selection process.

The program is aimed for candidates involved in the professional contemporary art world. When having completed the program, participants will receive an attestation of participation to the session.

Level
The level of l'Ecole du Magasin corresponds to a post-grade of Fine Arts, history of art, cultural studies, a professional formation in contemporary art for candidates already involved in cultural production and issues.

Contents
L'Ecole du Magasin is conceived as a research and production program, developed independently from any academic frame. Teachings are based on the elaboration and production of a project on a ten months term.

The topic of the project is elaborated at the very start of the formation, in the perspective of fulfilling its realization in a professional art venue, taking into account the mastering of the exhibition process and its artistic tools – both technical and conceptual.

Leading of the project
It is achieved with supporting skills of the tutoring of an active professional linked to the identity of the project, and the collaboration of theoreticians and practitioners (artists, curators, art critics, historians, editors) who intervene on a regular or exceptional basis, accordingly. Every month, a one-week seminary is led at the Magasin by the tutor. The other weeks, participants are invited to develop their independent research and participate in study trips, lectures and meetings.

Diffusion
Conceived and realized on a professional basis; the project is rendered public in conditions of visibility aimed to enhance a wished professionalization for its participants. He could be included in national or international events. For example, the participation of sessions 16 and 18 in the Biennale d'art contemporain de Lyon.
