Curators visits

Our research visits to countries overseas provide the opportunity for curators looking to expand their knowledge of international artwork in a specific overseas context. The visits often coincide with a festival platform, but have also occurred independently as bespoke visits, depending on the nature of the arts scene in the particular country of study.
