ICI presents the inaugural Curatorial Intensive in Bangkok, Thailand, developed in partnership with the Faculty of Fine and Applied Arts at Chulalongkorn University to coincide with the launch of its international postgraduate program in Curatorial Practice, and with the James H.W. Thompson Foundation.

Focusing on the regional context of the rapidly expanding contemporary art landscape in Bangkok, participants will engage with key practitioners, curators, and artists, active in the city and internationally.

The Curatorial Intensive, a weeklong professional development program, is designed to immerse participants in a rigorous schedule of seminars, presentations, site visits, and one-on-one meetings that support the process of developing an idea for a project into a full proposal. It is a unique opportunity to forge a close network of peers and embark on future collaborations. This program is targeted toward self-motivated individuals at an early stage in their career, working independently or within institutions.

Seminars, site visits, individual meetings, and roundtable discussions will be led by a group of professionals that includes: Remco de Blaaij (Director, Artspace, New Zealand), Zoe Butt (Artistic Director, The Factory Contemporary Arts Centre, Ho Chi Minh City), Ellie Buttrose (Associate Curator of Contemporary International Art at the Queensland Art Gallery) Gridthiya Gaweewong (Artistic Director, Jim Thompson Art Center, Bangkok), Mami Kataoka (Chief Curator, Mori Art Museum, Tokyo), Amanda Parmer (Director of Programs), Apinan Poshyananda (Professor of Fine and Applied Arts at Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok), Renaud Proch (Executive Director, ICI), and Mari Spirito (Founding Director, Protocinema, Istanbul), David Teh ( Assistant Professor in the Department of English Language and Literature at the National University of Singapore) among others.

Application Guidelines
10–12 applicants working internationally will be selected to participate in the Curatorial Intensive. The applicant must have 3+ years of curatorial experience. All applications must include a 500-word description of an exhibition idea that the applicant would like help in developing. This description should outline the proposal concept and any artists under consideration. Also required are a current 250-word bio, a 500-word letter of intent, and a 300-word text that describes a recent curatorial project that has made an impact on the applicant.

about ici

Independent Curators International (ICI) supports the work of curators to help create stronger art communities through experimentation, collaboration, and international engagement. Curators are arts community leaders and organizers who champion artistic practice; build essential infrastructures and institutions; and generate public engagement with art. Our collaborative programs connect curators across generations, and across social, political and cultural borders. They form an international framework for sharing knowledge and resources — promoting cultural exchange, access to art, and public awareness for the curator’s role.
