Open call for the 23rd Exhibition Mostra art públic / Universitat pública

  • May 29th, 2020

Until 13th July 2020, the call for the twenty-third edition of the Mostra art public / universitat pública (Public Art / Public University Exhibition) will be open. This initiative aims to transform the university environment of the Burjassot Campus into a place of artistic intervention open to society.

The call is aimed at visual artists, of any nationality or place of residence, without age restriction, who can participate individually or collectively with a site-specific work for the Burjassot campus that aims to establish a dialogue between art and science, as an exercise and challenge of contemporary culture.

The 23rd Mostra art públic is curated by Alba Braza, expert in cultural projects and artistic mediation. Alba Braza will be a member of the jury that will evaluate the projects, along with Irene Ballester, art critic and member of the Valencian Culture Council; Sergio Rubira, subhead of the IVAM (In English, Valencian Institute of Modern Art) for collections and exhibitions; and Norberto Piqueras, responsible of exhibitions of the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Sport of the Universitat de València. 

The jury of the Mostra art públic will select a maximum of six projects that will receive a grant of €2,000 for carrying out their proposal. The six projects will take part on the exhibition that will be held at the Burjassot Campus. In addition, with the photographic reproductions of the interventions on display, the Universitat will publish a catalogue.

Mostra art public / universitat pública (Public Art / Public University Exhibition) is organised by the Sedi Information and Promotion Service of the Universitat de València, in collaboration with the Office of the Vice-Principal for Culture and Sport.
