Curatorial residency in Dublin
In the beginning of 2015 Mare van Koningsveld & I responded to an open call for curators. The call was initiated by Fire Sation in Dublin. Fire station is located in the north east inner city of Dublin. “The Fire Station Artists’ Studios was established in 1993 to provide support for professional visual artists. ”Fire Station at present provides subsidised combined living and working studios for Irish and international artists and curators. “A key policy of the Fire Station is to contribute to the debate on collaborative and socially engaged arts practice, through a commissioning process that incorporates critique.” www.firestation.ie
Sometime later we heard we were selected for the residency.
As a result Mare & I spent 2 weeks in Dublin in 2015.
