Press to Exit Project Space was established in September 2004 by artists Yane Calovski and Hristina Ivanoska as a special program-based artist initiative for research and production in the field of visual arts and curatorial practices. The program is focused on four main strands including: Visiting Curatorial Initiative – an invitation only residency program for emerging curators; New Project Productions – an invitation only program supporting independent production by (mainly) North Macedonian and regional artists; Lectures, Presentation and Exhibition Series – an ongoing and dynamic forum for debate and exchange of ideas while exploring ways of generating, producing and presenting regional and international projects and collaborations; and the Publishing Program which publishes artistic, curatorial, theoretical and architectural research projects. press to exit project space is dedicated to undertaking a critical examination and evaluation of the questions raised by contemporary artists, curators, architects and theorists in relation to the contemporary socio-political framework in which their practices emerge. Press to Exit Project Space is part of a number of international networks and forums that have been crucial in developing our practice internationally and with more social consequence.
