AHL–Chun Family Foundation Curatorial Open Call offers a $5,000 stipend to curators of Korean heritage. This initiative aligns with the AHL Foundation’s mission to encourage curatorial research in contemporary Korean art and promote diversity within the curatorial field. The curator selected through this open call will present their exhibition at the AHL Foundation Gallery in April 2026. The grant will be used to cover all aspects of the exhibition, from the initial planning stages through to its conclusion.

About

The Chun Family Foundation Scholarship was established by businessman Chun Myung-guk in 2007 and has been awarding scholarships to Korean students annually. Chairman Chun is deeply committed to supporting the Korean community through volunteer work and educational initiatives. Established in 2017 with special support from the Chun Family Foundation Scholarship Committee, the AHL Foundation’s curatorial program aims to nurture and support curators specializing in contemporary Korean art during the early stages of their careers.

In 2023, the program was rebranded as “Curatorial OpenCall,” with a new focus on providing a platform for curators at all stages of their careers. This initiative supports the development and execution of a variety of exhibitions, thereby enhancing professional growth and fostering innovation in the field of Korean contemporary art and curatorial studies.
