Short Description The Young Curators program invites an exhibition curator to join a curatorial residency at Kunstmuseum Bochum, a museum of modern and contemporary art. The residency supports emerging French curators by providing a platform to engage with the German art scene and rethink museum practices through an exhibition project centered on the Fluxus movement. Project Duration: May 1 – October 31, 2025 (6 months) Exhibition Project: “How We Met. The legacy (Fluxus) of gallery owner Inge Baecker” (Exhibition runs from October 11, 2025 to February 15, 2026) The residency focuses on exploring and reinterpreting the Fluxus movement—a post-WWII avant-garde movement known for its anti-authoritarian and collective approach—through the lens of Inge Baecker’s legacy. The project challenges traditional museum practices by addressing how ephemeral Fluxus works can be exhibited in a contemporary context.   How to Apply: Email your application in English to: info.bdap@institutfrancais.de Required Documents (in PDF format, total size not exceeding 5 MB): A CV including your date of birth and SIRET number A one-page cover letter A list of projects you have participated in (if not included in the CV) Submission Requirements: All documents must be in PDF format Submit via email by the application deadline Selection Process: Applications will be evaluated by a selection committee from the Office of Plastic Arts at the French Institute in Germany, in partnership with the Kunstmuseum Bochum Shortlisted candidates will be invited for interviews during the week of March 10, 2025   Eligibility Must be an exhibition curator with training and curatorial experience Must have a keen interest in the Fluxus movement and a clear vision for the future of museum practice Must be of French nationality or residing in France Must be under 36 years old at the start of the mission Fluency in English is mandatory; fluency in German is an asset   Program Benefits or Awards A full-time curatorial residency for 6 months with a dedicated budget of €12,000 Project support fees: €7,200 (€1,200 per month) Workshop development fees for a young audience: €1,500 (€250 per month) Accommodation cost assistance: up to €3,000 (€500 per month) Travel cost assistance between France and Germany: up to €300 Support for developing a major exhibition project around the Fluxus legacy Assistance with accommodation and travel costs Involvement in developing a workshop for a young audience and mediation activities Opportunity to work closely with the curatorial team at Kunstmuseum Bochum and engage with significant cultural archives     Entry Fee: None   Location: Bochum, Germany (Kunstmuseum Bochum)   Deadline: March 3, 2025   Website link:  https://www.jeunescommissaires.de/residence-curatoriale/
