The talk focuses on the development of Janevski’s curatorial practice through three distinct case studies, each illustrating a different exhibition format and curatorial strategy. "Looping" emerges in the context of a major solo exhibition by Joan Jonas at MoMA; "Echoing" characterizes the curatorial approach within a biennial framework–specifically, the Art Encounters Biennial in Timișoara, co-curated with Tevž Logar; and "Relaying" underpins the collaborative, process-based "anniversary-retrospective" at the Cité des Arts in Paris, developed with Nataša Petrešin-Bachelez. These diverse contexts—from the institutional structure of MoMA to a biennial positioned outside the dominant centers of the art world, to a collectively shaped project in Paris—offer students insights into the curatorial thinking, formats, and methodologies behind each exhibition. The conversation examines how each setting informed the curatorial process, shaped forms of collaboration, and engaged different publics.
