Ender Açar

The Children’s Biennial Group led by Ender Açar develops participatory art projects with and for young people, positioning children as co-authors of artistic processes rather than passive audiences. Its work operates at the intersection of curation, education and community practice, often in collaboration with schools, museums and neighbourhood initiatives. Through workshops, site-specific installations and long-term artistic research, the group creates spaces in which children can experiment with visual and performative languages, articulate their own perspectives and critically question social realities and power structures.

Slightly extended deadline for submissions

The 2026 Forum on Artistic Research website has been inaccessible for several hours on Friday night and Saturday morning. Unfortunately, an update to the web server was scheduled to take place, which automatically activated maintenance mode and prevented any work on the submissions during the night and the next morning. We have therefore decided to slightly extend the deadline for submissions to Monday 2 March 2026 at 23:59 GMT. Feel free to work on your proposals until then.
