CURATORIAL TRAINING PROGRAMME DE APPEL:
CALL FOR APPLICATIONS

De Appel, Centre for Contemporary Art in Amsterdam, will start the
eleventh Curatorial Training Programme (CTP) from September 2005. This
seven-month course gives six young international participants the
opportunity to further develop their skills, guided by curators like
René Block, Saskia Bos, Jan Debbaut, Hou Hanru, Maria Hlavajova, well
known artists like Marlene Dumas, Tiong Ang, Fiona Tan and many
(international) experts in the field of funding and arts management.
Former CTP participants have profited greatly from this course, some
have become directors of art centres or work as independent curators.

The programme comprises courses at De Appel, excursions to exhibitions
and art institutions both inside and outside of The Netherlands, and the
curating of a show within the premises of De Appel.

DO YOU KNOW QUALITATIVE CANDIDATES THAT COULD BE INTERESTED TO
PARTICIPATE?
Please have them send a motivation letter with CV and reference letters
to De Appel before 31 December 2004. An international Jury will invite
the twelve most promising candidates for an interview in February. Six
of them will be admitted to the programme. Usually one out of the six
participants has the Dutch nationality; the others originate from all
over the world. The course language is English, therefore knowledge of
this language in spoken and written form is imperative. Furthermore,
candidates must have a degree in art or art history and relevant working
experience in the field.
