Critical Transformations: A Forum on New Futures | Institutional Reformatting
Join us for the final roundtable talk on founding and operating contemporary art venues, as part of Critical Transformations: A Forum on New Futures.
Whether developing new and unexpected exhibition platforms such as Other Sights or collective research and development teams as in NAVEL’s Assemblies program, these artists, teachers, and curators have developed new structures for critical art production, in a way that prioritizes interdependence, non-hierarchical systems and information-sharing. This discussion will consider the many ways to reimagine “institutions” from the ground up.
Panelists:
Michael Holt, Co-Director, NAVEL and Alice Yuan Zhang, Co-Organizer, Virtual Care Lab
Caroline Woolard, Author of Making and Being and Artist
Vanessa Kwan, Program Director, grunt, Curator/Producer, Other Sights and Artist
Moderated by Ceci Moss
Please note all Critical Transformations events will be recorded and published at a later date on this website.
