In the frame of the project “SOILTRIBES - Glocal Ecosystems Restoring Soil Values, Roles and Connectivity”, supported by Horizon Europe - the EU's key funding programme for research and innovation - the Global Network of Water Museums launches an open call to select seven museums in Europe to host the travelling exhibition “SOIL ART TALES. Living Ecosystems for Shared Futures”.
The exhibition is designed and promoted to increase soil interpretation and literacy across society; to add emotional and motivational layers to human-soil connections, offering new ways of visualizing, interpreting, and interacting with soil. It is composed by four artworks featuring the work of four selected multi-disciplinary artists: Binta Diaw, Jo Pearl, Miguel Teodoro and Nikki Lindt.
The travelling exhibition is coordinated by WAMU-NET and curated by Stefano Cagol. The selected museums will have to host the exhibition for a duration of at least one month between November 2025 and May 2027. They will also have to organize at least one edutainment activity open to visitors related to the exhibition.
Deadline: 20 July 2025
Results published on: 31 July 2025
