NLB MUZA Launches International Call for Members of the Artistic Council

To ensure proper management of these treasures, NLB established the Institute for the Management of Cultural Heritage in April 2020. Known as NLB MUZA, the institute is fully owned by NLB d.d. and is part of the NLB Group.

Building on this foundation, NLB MUZA is opening an international call for applications for membership in its Artistic Council. The Council will play a vital role in shaping strategic directions, curatorial concepts, and program content in the field of contemporary art.

The call is open to curators with extensive international experience in contemporary art, as well as directors of galleries and museums of contemporary art who have demonstrated professional excellence and leadership skills. Applicants should submit proof of professional qualifications, including a CV and a list of exhibitions, publications, and projects, along with a motivation letter outlining their vision for the development of contemporary art and at least two references.

Members of the Artistic Council will advise on the acquisition of contemporary artworks, the preservation and development of the art collection, and the creation of program guidelines. They will also contribute to international networking and project development, while monitoring trends in contemporary art. The term of appointment will be four years.

Applications should be sent to matko.mioc@nlb-muza.si with the subject line “Application – Artistic Council” no later than January 25, 2026.
