The SALOON Network fosters a community within the art world that exchanges ideas, experiences and expertise and encourages the creation of collaborations and projects. Our members are women-identifying and non-binary who are curators, artists, journalists, gallerists and other professionals in the arts. Our activities include monthly meetings between the members as well as public events, ranging from studio or exhibition visits, portfolio reviews, exhibitions, or panel discussions. We actively collaborate with other communities to foster inclusion, exchange, understanding and trust between diverse networks of art professionals and aim at creating more visibility and equal opportunities for women in our communities. We are committed to intersectional, de-colonial and anti-racist feminist work. We especially encourage BIPOC, cis, trans women as well as non-binary people to apply for a SALOON membership. Therefore, the SALOON Network is dedicated to dismantling boundaries for every woman and becoming a network that truly represents the diverse members of our society. Additionally, we regularly connect members of each SALOON city by organizing international exchange programs, members’ exhibitions, or online SALOON meetings. In 2012, the first SALOON was founded by independent curator Tina Sauerlaender in Berlin. You can watch the speech about her vision for the SALOON here. Please contact us if you want to join the network or suggest a collaboration.
