Kitty Chester Series of Curator’s Lab Projects
2010 Submission Guidelines
Curator’s Lab exhibitions take place in FOCA’s headquarters in Chinatown. The Curator’s Laboratory project series greatly enhances FOCA’s mission of supporting emerging and mid-career California artists by reaching out to young curators who will present exhibitions in support of a curatorial thesis. In keeping with FOCA’s historical goal to provide documentation of each exhibition, records of the curator’s process of conceptualizing and organizing each exhibition will be posted on FOCA’s website. Over time this series of curatorial projects and associated web support will generate - for students, artists, curators, and the public - a valuable archive resource.
FOCA periodically offers an open call for curatorial submissions for its Curator’s Laboratory program. A diagram of the floorplan of the space may be downloaded here.
