H+F Curatorial Grant
Since 2007 the H+F Curatorial Grant has been giving talented exhibition makers the opportunity to curate an exhibition. A jury, which includes FRAC director Hilde Teerlinck and Han Nefkens, bases its decision on an exhibition proposal inspired by the collection of the FRAC Nord-Pas de Calais in Dunkirk and the H+F Collection. The home base of the Curatorial Grant winner is the FRAC, but exhibitions may also be staged elsewhere.

ArtAids
The ArtAids foundation was set up in 2006 at Han Nefkens’ initiative. ArtAids fights AIDS, with the substantial and monetary power of art as its most important weapon. ArtAids invites leading artists to produce work that is inspired by AIDS and related problems. These works of art are used not only to raise the public’s consciousness and to encourage their involvement but also to generate funds to support projects throughout the world aimed at preventing and fighting AIDS.
