UFO Visitors Programme #2 – MORPHO & Vonk
24.05.2022

UFO Visitors Programme #2 invites six international curators for a tailor-made programme during the Antwerp Art Weekend. The programme aims to connect artists in Flanders and Brussels with people and platforms that have a particular attention for the support and presentation of emerging artists’ practices, to exchange knowledge and experience, and to nurture a network of references and opportunities.

This second edition is organised by VONK and MORPHO together with Z33 and Kunsthal Extra City, supported by Flanders Arts Institute. Passing four days in Hasselt and Antwerp, the visiting curators will meet local artists at studio visits and other professional events.

International guests

  • Katayoun Arian – Curator at TENT, Rotterdam and independent curator, The Netherlands
  • Mikkel Elming – Director of Glasmuseet Ebeltoft and independent curator, Denmark
  • Katrine Elise Pedersen – Curator and Interim Director at Kunsthall Trondheim, Norway
  • Madeleine Planeix-Crocker – Associate Curator at Lafayette Anticipations, Paris, France
  • Tim Roerig – Curator at Z33, Hasselt, Belgium
  • Guido Santandrea – Artistic Director at Almanac Projects, London, UK and Almanac Inn, Turin, Italy

Public programme

The public part of this four-day programme starts at VONK with a tour of their studios. Afterwards artists are invited to visit Z33, where they can exchange thoughts and questions with our international guests (in English). We will gather in smaller groups around topics such as: what kind of support is present for artists in your country? Which kind of residencies, artist run spaces or other organisations dedicated to emerging international artists would you recommend and why?
