World of Art | Year 18 | Series of public lectures | V-F-X Ljubljana
Lecture
Thursday, 19 May 2022, 5 pm
Slovenian Cinematheque, 28 Miklošičeva Street, Ljubljana
The lecture will revolve around the specificities of curating artists’ moving image work, aiming to combine practical and theoretical approaches to the field. It will discuss questions of researching, selecting and showing work in various screening, performance and installation formats, as well as the ethics of production, distribution, and presentation of time-based art forms, and film and video in particular. The lecture will also discuss how the experience of the last two years has shaped curatorial work and its field of operation – the role of the curator as the one facilitating access to and communicating what film is or does, our understanding of the concepts of “audience” and “public”, as well as ideas of “liveness”. The past two years have also foregrounded the urgency to discuss questions of fair pay, sustainability, diversity, and access in the art field in general, and film and video in particular.
Lecture will be held in English language.
Free Entry.
