Currents #10: Choose Your Own Story
The anniversary edition of the annual group exhibition Currents will open on 18 December 2022. An annually changing team of young curators will compile the exhibition, which showcases work by recent graduates from academies in Belgium, Germany and the southern Netherlands. Marres started this Euregional talent project in 2013, which not only offers participants a stage, but also a broader training- and network program that actively contributes to the professionalization of young artists and curators.
In 2018, Marres welcomed Z33, House for Contemporary Art, Design & Architecture, in Hasselt (BE) as a co-producing partner and Jester as partner. Since then, Marres and Z33 annually alternate as organizing party. So far, 140 artists from twelve academies in the Euregion have participated in the program and many more young artists have beneted from workshops, fund days, and activities. Putting together Currents has also given the careers of 25 young curators a major boost.
