URGENCIES 2023 is open for applications! This biennial group exhibition at CCA Derry~Londonderry, takes place from 21 January–18 March 2023 and seeks to understand what artists today consider to be urgent.
This call seeks artists in the earlier stages of their careers based in Northern Ireland or with a connection to the region, who address urgencies through their work, to apply.
