During the Summer, the Improper Walls team takes time to rest, which means that our space is temporary without a program. Because we believe that having access to space is an unequally distributed privilege, especially in the fields of culture and arts, we have decided to share ours.
We are creating a focused mentorship for emerging curators based in Vienna who have curiosity and some practical experience (from little to medium), but who seek a supportive, non-gatekept environment to grow. Two selected curators will take part in a four-month program consisting of workshops with four mentors, exchanges with other curators, visits to off-spaces, galleries, and artists’ studios, as well as a detailed, hands-on collaboration with the Improper Walls team to develop, plan, and realise a final exhibition, bringing the program to a full cycle of curatorial practice.
