CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS - 2022-2024 REGULAR PROGRAMMING
La Centrale galerie Powerhouse is an artist-run centre dedicated to the dissemination and development of multidisciplinary feminist practices. We are committed to supporting practices and artists who are not very visible in the dominant cultural institutions, and this at various stages of their careers. Our mandate focuses on feminisms that enter into dialogue with intersectionality and social justice. Our programming is built on the basis of non-hierarchy and consensus, by selection committees made up of active members of the centre.
La Centrale invites artists and curators at all levels of their careers to submit exhibitions, curatorial and digital projects related to the centre's mandate. We pay exhibition fees and honoraria according to the rates recommended by the Canadian Artists’ Representation / Front des artistes canadiens (CARFAC). We also financially support artists who live outside of Montreal, for expenses such as accommodation, travel and transportation of works.
