As part of our their ongoing International Visitor Programme, OCA is pleased to host the The Curatorial Program for Research (CPR) in Bergen. Together with Office for Contemporary Art Norway, we invite you for a meet and greet with the visiting curators. Each curator will give a short presentation about their curatorial practice.

After the presentations we welcome you to stay for an informal conversation and light foods.

CPR fellows in 2024 are: Isra Al Kassi (Iran / UK), Rose Bouthillier (Canada), Kholisile Dhliwayo (Australia / USA), Azar Mahmoudian Esfahani (Iran), Tina Petersone (Latvia), Samuele Piazza (Italy), Talia Smith (Australia), Larisa Zmud (Argentina).

CPR – The Curatorial Program for Research has facilitated an international network of curators, artists and institutions since 2015. The 2024 edition titled ‘Who is Being Heard?’ is organized by CPR Founding Director Carmen Ferreyra; Europe Director Susanne Ewerlöf; with key local specialists: Ruben Steinum (Director, Office for Contemporary Art, Norway), Lena Malm (Head of IASPIS Visual Arts Program), Mariangela Méndez Prencke (Director, Havremagasinet Länskonsthall Boden), and Kati Laakso (Director, Finnish Cultural Institute of New York).

Through the expertise of key local collaborators, and complemented by readings about local socio-political history, curators will partake in a conceptually connected program of visits to artist studios and art institutions – an immersive introduction to the artistic practice, production, and dissemination in the host locations and an opportunity to connect with peers.
