Opening with accompanying event
Dorothee Richter: Artists and Curators as Authors – Competitors, Collaborators, or Teamworkers?
Thursday, March 15, 2012 at 7 p. m.
MGLC, Ljubljana
Dorothee Richter will question artistic and curatorial authorship and will try to place it in broader historical frame. Are artists and curators competitors at taking the grants for authorship in contemporary art? Did curators adopted the process of artistic self-organization? If they really did, what are the consequences? Are artists and curators co-workers on the field which is little undefined and more flexible and open as such?
Lecture will be in english language.
