Description

RECLAIMING THE CURATORIAL 2017

A workshop exploring expanded curatorial practices, 11-14 April 

Following the 2015 edition, Reclaiming the Curatorial returns as an intensive, practical course for individuals interested in developing self-organised platforms for curating and presenting contemporary visual art practice.  Based at Cubitt Gallery and Studios, a leading artist-led organisation renowned for its Curatorial Fellowship, this springtime school will consist of workshops and seminars led by invited artists & curators, alongside visits to some of London’s inspiring peer-led and self-initiated projects.

In the past ten years curating courses have tended to focus on institutional contexts, whilst a rich activity of curatorial practices led by artists and creative practitioners has been producing exhibitions, setting up spaces, and experimenting with new collaborative working methods.  The creative arts are also facing significant financial challenges, and urgently need new models for producing and sharing contemporary practice.

The course is designed for artists, emerging curators, students/recent graduates and other creative professionals interested in developing self-initiated, peer-led and alternative forms of curating practice.  Themes will include: research, commissioning, production and dissemination. Reclaiming the Curatorial offers a small group of participants the chance to take part in a focused study: developing skills in self-organised practice; alongside learning directly from inspiring individuals and collectives, the workshop is a chance to meet other like-minded people interested in developing expanded curatorial practices and sharing working methods.

Reclaiming the Curatorial is devised by Jenny Richards, curator Marabouparken Konsthall, Sweden, in collaboration with Cubitt’s Gallery Projects and Development Manager Fabio Altamura.
