Professional Standards in Curatorial Practice II – Curating in Transition.
Museum of Contemporary Art Belgrade, April 19th – 26th 2002
The title Curating in Transition
in general refers to the set of conditions, which effect the positioning
of a curator within the framework of constant shifts of artistic, institutional,
social and political paradigms. In particular the Seminar addressed the
specific features of the region in question in which transition functions
as a socio-political and economical process. On the other hand it made
an emphasis on the role and strategies of curators regarding the system
of relations in the field of culture and in cultural institutions. Starting
from this issue as a point for debate, the young curators positioned themselves
and practically responded to the problems of their practice through the
exhibition that was conceptualized and elaborated on the Seminar and will
be realized afterwards.
