CasildART invites curators to submit proposals for an upcoming exhibition titled “Duo & Dualities.”

This show will explore the theme of duality through the work of two artists of African and/or Caribbean heritage.

We are seeking imaginative and innovative interpretations of duality - whether expressed through aesthetics, form, identity, or culture.

Proposals should thoughtfully explore the complexities, tensions, and harmonies that arise from dual perspectives: tradition vs. modernity heritage vs. innovation, individual vs. collective, and more.

We’re particularly interested in curators who:

● Engage critically and creatively with African and Caribbean cultural narratives

● Bring fresh insight into contemporary global conversations around identity and duality

● Demonstrate a nuanced understanding of the historical, social, and artistic contexts of African and Caribbean communities

● Can curate an exhibition that is visually compelling, intellectually rich, and culturally relevant.

This is a chance to present a powerful dialogue between two artists whose practices reflect layered, interwoven identities and perspectives.

Who can apply:

● Curators with a strong grasp of African and Caribbean cultural heritage and traditions.

● Those with knowledge of contemporary conversations about identity, migration, diaspora, and the concept of dualities in art.

● Curators with a vision for creating dynamic exhibitions that explore the complexities and beauty of dual cultural narratives.

To apply: 

Submit your proposal outlining the curatorial concept, artist suggestions and how your interpretation connects to the theme.

This is a selling event, so please bear this in mind when thinking about the selection of artists.

Curators should demonstrate an understanding of African and Caribbean cultures, as well as contemporary discussions around identity, heritage, and cultural expression.

Proposals should thoughtfully explore how dualities manifest - whether through aesthetic choices, formal approaches, personal narratives, or broader cultural conversations.

We welcome innovative and critical curatorial approaches that highlight the complexities, tensions, and harmonies within African and Caribbean artistic practices.

Artists with at least two years of experience are also encouraged to apply.
