Kostka Gallery: Open Call for Exhibition Projects in 2017

MeetFactory – center for contemporary arts calls for projects which will complete the exhibition program of the Kostka Gallery in 2017.

The call is opened for Czech and international artists, artists groups and curators. We prefer projects reacting upon the untraditional typology and the site-specific context of the exhibition space of the Kostka Gallery. Given the specific characteristics of the space, we recommend to present works by one or two artists, rather than a group show. We offer 4 – 6 exhibition terms of a standard length of approximately one month.  

The space – a former boiler room of a glass factory – is not heated in the winter. It is, however, an imposing space in a shape of a cube. The measures are 9,1 x 11,5 x 10,5m. The space is monitored by a security camera system and is open to the public daily from 1-8pm.  

MeetFactory offers:

• basic installation help
• limited financial cover
• printing of exhibition postcards
• including the information about the exhibition in the MeetFactory monthly program
• basic PR (press release, social networks etc.) 

In case of financially demanding projects, we recommend artists or curators to seek for individual grant support.  

The application should contain:

• a short project description (up to two pages) and visualization (PDF, max 10 MB)
• an up-to-date portfolio and CV of the artist(s) and/or curator(s) (PDF, max 10 MB)  

The applications may be submitted electronically until 10th September 2016. Contact address: jaro.varga@meetfactory.cz.  

The results will be available by the end of September 2016.
