Guggenheim Casting Call Out for Kids 8-12

The Guggenheim has a casting call out for kids 8-12 for the Tino Sehgal exhibition in 2010. This is once in a lifetime opportunity for kids to work with an amazing artist and be a part of the museum experience at the Guggenheim.

"The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is currently organizing an exhibition of the work of the celebrated contemporary artist Tino Sehgal that will set the artist’s unique, situation-based projects within the museum’s spiraling rotunda. Rather than making conventional, material art objects, Sehgal creates ephemeral but repeatable works that consist entirely of the interactions among their participants and are not documented visually.

Casting Information

  • Exhibition runs from January 29 through March 10.
  • Participants would be needed 3 shifts per week (4 hours each) over a 6-week period.
  • Age range: 8–12 years old (boys and girls). Bright, articulate, engaging and with a willingness to learn and experience something they will never have the opportunity to do again. These children will be interacting with the museum public for several hours per shift.
  • No pay, but meal/snacks will be provided, in addition to what promises to be a truly educational experience.
