Transferring local dialogues into an international context, Matadero Madrid; Contemporary Art Centre (CAC), Vilnius; Videotage, Hong Kong; and Raw Material Company (RMC), Dakar will each stage a selection of projects and archives that introduce artists’ practices and curatorial exchanges from their regions. The exhibition is an extension of ICI’s Curatorial Hub, giving New York audiences access for the first time to some of the newest collaborators in ICI’s international network of curators and institutions.

Projects on view will include: 
Matadero Madrid‘s Archimobile, a traveling archive of over 100 artists connected to Madrid, which ICI Curatorial Intensive alumna, Andrea Hill will activate by conceiving the New York presentation and commissioning a new work—www.mataderomadrid.org;

• A presentation from CAC of artworks chronicling exhibitions that have happened in and around Vilnius within the past year. On view collectively for the first time, the videos, sculpture, and photographs, many of which were commissioned by CAC, were selected by CAC curator and former ICI Curatorial Fellow Virginija Januškevičiūtė and independent curator Inesa Pavlovskaite, co-founder of The Gardens in Vilnius—www.cac.lt/en;

• Videotage‘s Hong Kong interventions to the ICI/Creative Time project Living as Form (The Nomadic Version), alongside a compilation of works from the Videotage Media Art Collection (VMAC), curated by independent curator/producer Helen Homan Wu—www.videotage.ork.hk;

• A representation of Raw Material Company‘s resource center for Africa-related art practices, selected by RMC’s founder and artistic director Koyo Kouoh, who will also come to New York in January for ICI’s Curator’s Perspective talk series in conjunction with the exhibition—www.rawmaterialcompany.org.

In addition, a series of public events will be organized during the exhibition and in collaboration with each of the four participating art spaces to further examine their practices. For more information, visit ICI’s website, www.curatorsintl.org.

ICI Curatorial Hub at TEMP is made possible in part by grants from the Auchincloss Foundation, the Hartfield Foundation, and Spain Culture New York, and by contributions from the supporters of the ICI Access Fund, and ICI’s Board of Trustees.

About ICI
Since 2010, 13 ICI exhibitions have been presented by 83 venues in 27 countries profiling the work of over 613 artists worldwide; 134 curators and artists from the U.S. and abroad have contributed to ICI’s talks programs, online journal, and conferences; and 165 curators from 39 countries and 19 U.S. states have participated in the Curatorial Intensives. In 2011 ICI established the Curatorial Hub, the first physical resource for international and local curators to use when they are in New York. Intended to better facilitate the informal exchange of ideas and experiences between professionals, the Curatorial Hub provides a flexible project space for talks, screenings, and training programs and also houses ICI’s Curatorial Library. www.curatorsintl.org

About TEMP
TEMP is a project space in the historic TriBeCa neighborhood of New York founded by Alex Ahn and Ari Lipkis. Its mission is to promote emerging artists and curators through exhibitions, performances, and collaborations. Encouraging creative discourse, the space is a place for experimentation, ingenuity, and talent in the arts. In September 2012, TEMP opened its inaugural exhibition Working On It, a group show that explores the creative zeitgeist of young adults in the early 2010s. www.tempartspace.com
