The Project Space is curated to complement Cement Fondu’s main exhibitions and focuses on live, experimental, social, immersive and evolving exhibitions. We encourage activations, such as workshops and performances.

The space is for artists at all stages of their careers who want to expand their practice and explore new ways of working while creating high-quality outcomes and experiences.

We are currently inviting unique ideas that complement two of our gallery exhibitions:

OPEN CALL#1
TEXTBOOK FOR DESIRE

2. 15 April – 2 May 2021
