CURATION AND CO-ORDINATION OPPORTUNITY

Crate Studio and Project Space is offering an opportunity to develop a year long programme for its project space, starting Autumn/Winter 2008. We are offering a £500 fee to develop the programme and funding application/s, with Crate's support.

The project space at Crate is designated as a research and development space for artists, rather than an exhibition space. This curatorial opportunity is to examine how artists' practice can be supported by the project space, and to explore the space between studio and exhibition. Previous programmed projects at Crate have supported collaborative research projects, residencies, artists' talks, and have established networks and exchanges. See Crate Programme Archive for more details.

The funding application/s would include provision for curation and co-ordination time. If funding bids were successful the Project Space Co-ordinator would deliver the year's programme.

Please send a CV and one page application outlining initial ideas to admin@cratespace.co.uk

The Crate building has 500 sq ft of project space. Situated on the ground floor, it is available to fine artists as short term studio and research space, to test, document or develop work.

Resources include digital and slide projectors, wireless broadband, large clean wall space, light controllable environment, good access and kitchen facilities.

Project Space 1 is 300 sq ft, with good natural light from north facing windows. Project Space 2 offers a dark space with projection wall. Both spaces can be booked by fine artists or art organisations on a daily or weekly basis.
