Open Call: Curatorial Concept Session with Linda Rubino (@lillarubino_ ) @behindart__ invites artists to apply for an online curatorial concept session with curator and writer Linda Rubino. This open call offers one selected artist the opportunity to work directly on the development of an exhibition or curatorial project. The session is designed for artists who are navigating complex research, layered ideas or projects that feel conceptually strong but structurally unresolved. Linda Rubino is an art curator and writer who works at the intersection of contemporary art, ecology and sensory experience. Drawing on a background in Business Process Management at ASML, she applies a structural lens to the curatorial process, focusing on how art can provide a space for reflection amidst systemic environmental and social pressures. She specializes in structuring complex research into exhibition logic, acting as a bridge between an artist’s conceptual archive and its public realization.
