Venice Biennale sector opportunities now open
59th Venice Biennale 2022
+ Applications open: 10 August 2021
+ Applications close: 3pm AEST 21 September
The Biennale Delegates Program is a professional development opportunity for early-career arts and cultural workers based in Australia. The 2022 theme is re(situate), an offer to refocus and reposition as we step into this next era in international engagement within the visual arts.
This edition will counterpoint the prevailing legacies of foundational biennale models with emergent and regionally specific modes of practice tethered to the Asia Pacific region.
Participants will engage with program facilitators through online labs and an in-person residency in NSW.
The Australia Council are inviting applications from the full spectrum of the visual arts industry. This includes but is not limited to cultural producers, artists, writers, technical producers, philanthropy coordinators, engagement and community development and curators.
The Biennale Delegates Program is a co-investment initiative with the following state and territory arts funding agencies:
Create NSW, Creative Victoria, Culture and the Arts WA through Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries, Arts NT, Arts Tasmania, Arts Qld, Arts South Australia and artsACT.
Additional access support for successful applicants has been made possible through the generosity of the Cross Family Foundations.
