Are you a publisher looking to stimulate the discourse of visual art within the professional field? Are you a curator with an idea for a series of articles about contemporary visual art for a wider audience? Or are you a content maker keen to improve public engagement with visual art? If so, you may be eligible for the Art Media open call.
The Mondriaan Fund offers the Art Media open call to stimulate engagement with and the discourse of contemporary visual art in the Netherlands. Applications can be submitted for planned written and/or spoken word publications, e.g. (a series of) articles or long reads for (online) magazines, newspapers, social media channels and/or other online platforms, such as a podcast.

It is important that the social value of contemporary visual art is addressed and shared from an independent position and from a broad perspective.
