Vortrag Curatorial Studies
Paul O´Neill: Curating beyond the Canon - The Exhibition-as-Medium, the Exhibition-as-Form, Co-productive Exhibition-making and Attentiveness.
Mittwoch, 27. Mai 2015, 19 Uhr, Aula

The group exhibition-form has become the primary site for curatorial experimentation and, as such, represents a relatively new discursive space around artistic practice. Paul O'Neill will look back at some of his exhibitions, and describe how cumulative and expanding exhibition-forms can constitute an investigation into how the curatorial role is made manifest through cohesive and co-operative exhibition-making structures applied during all stages of the exhibition production. This talk will demonstrate how exhibitions create spatial relations between different planes of interaction for the viewer, and how multiple agencies and actors are necessary for an understanding of the curatorial as a constellation of activities that can be can represented the final exhibition-form.

Paul O’Neill is a curator, writer, artist, and educator. He is currently Director of the Graduate Program in Curatorial Studies at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College. He is international tutor on the de Appel Curatorial Program, Amsterdam, and international research fellow with The Graduate School of Creative Arts and Media, Dublin.
