We are pleased to announce that we have completed the third of the 'Contemporary Art and Curatorial' Seminar Program that took place between between December 2021 and June 2022.

The program was launched in year 2019 with the cooperation of Open Dialogue Istanbul and Akbank Sanat.  Our graduates of this year attended the program different cities such as Istanbul, Izmir, Ankara and London. They had different formations such as urban landscape and design architecture, literature, international relations and politics, archeology and art history, architecture and theatre.

Their individual graduation projects were prepared under the umbrella of "Intentions 3" and information pertaining to the latter can be found below. Their various formations and backgrounds allowed them to have different perspectives in their projects and offer new suggestions to the audience.

Continuity and sustainability is an issue that we care about for this program.

 While we are preparing for the fourth semester of our program, the success of our graduates, who continue their professional lives in important culture and art institutions in various countries and cities around the world, has been a great source of happiness for us.   The ties we have established are always getting stronger.  In addition, our participants and alumni have created a valuable network among themselves.

About the Program

“Curating Contemporary Art” is a 7 month-long seminar series organized in cooperation by Open Dialogue Istanbul and Akbank Sanat. The purpose of these seminars is to initiate a comprehensive program on curating that is on an international level, thus creating a prestigious and unequalled platform of education in this field in Turkey.

The program will consist of both theory and practice. The program, which will be directed by Billur Tansel, will be carried out with an educational, practice-based and research-oriented approach. The seminars will be presented in Turkish and English, there will also be eight workshops for the participants to develop their finishing project which will be a curatorial project proposal to be evaluated by the jury at the end of the program. Speakers will be renowned actors from the international art platform. The seminars will also feature case studies on biennials, galleries, museums and art fairs. At the end of the seminars, the participants will present their individual curatorial project proposals and if approved by the Jury, the participants will be presented with a certificate of completion.  The participants will be offered internship, curatorial assistance opportunities in different institutions.
