For young curators and curators residing in the Community of Madrid

Since 2009, the Arte Joven Hall promotes "Se busca comisario" (Curator Wanted), an initiative that selects curatorial projects presented by young curators resident in the Community of Madrid and whose main objective is to provide professionals in the sector and the public with an overview of current artistic creation thanks to temporary exhibitions in which the ideas chosen by an expert jury are materialized.

The projects submitted can deal with any topic, discipline and/or artistic format, always within the calendar and budget limits previously defined in the published annual requirements. It should be taken into account that the proposals presented must incorporate works by artists preferably under 35 years of age who reside, work or exhibit in the Community of Madrid, regardless of their nationality.
