MARCO/FRAC Lorraine Award for Young Curators
Deadline: 7pm, Friday 30th October, 2009
Organized by the MARCO, Museo de Arte Contemporánea de Vigo, Spain and FRAC
Lorraine, Metz (Fonds regional d'art contemporain de Lorraine), France, the
purpose of the MARCO/FRAC Lorraine Award for Young Curators is to offer
participants the chance to execute an exhibition project to occupy MARCO's
first floor and the exhibition venues at FRAC Lorraine. Entries will focus
on the field of contemporary artistic creation and contemplate the
participation of two or more artists.

The exhibition project will have a budget of a maximum sum of 30,000 Euro
for each venue. The exhibition will take place from May to September, 2010
at MARCO Vigo, and from October, 2010 and January 2011 at FRAC Lorraine.
Proposals that include works from the Collection FRAC Lorraine shall be
taken into account. To visit the Collection:
http://collection.fraclorraine.org

All curators born in and after 1970 are eligible to enter the competition.
If an entry is a group creation, one person will be chosen from that group
to represent it and act as mediator with the institution. Curators will not
be allowed to participate as artists. Entries must be previously unpublished
and must contemplate the participation of two or more artists. No more than
one project per entrant will be accepted.

The curator of the winning project will sign a contract with the Fundación
MARCO and FRAC Lorraine, agreeing to comply with the functions derived from
curating an exhibition, the characteristics of which will be specified in
the contract. These will include the selection and location of the works,
the design and supervision of the installation, and the writing of at least
one text for the catalogue. The curator will receive the sum of 7,000 Euro,
tax included, as an honorarium.

A jury made up of professionals of the art world will select the winning
project and two finalists in November. The jury's decision is final. The
jury may declare the award void should they consider this necessary. The
criteria for evaluating the entries will be based on quality and suitability
to the characteristics of the first floor of the MARCO as an exhibition
space and exhibition spaces at FRAC Lorraine.

The jury will be composed by:
Beatrice Josse, FRAC Lorraine Director
I?aki Martínez Antelo, MARCO Director
Kevin Muhlen, Casino Luxembourg ­ Forum d'art contemporain Director
Agar Ledo Arias, MARCO Head of the Exhibitions Dept.
Pedro de Llano, Art Critic and curator
