The Producers : Contemporary Curators in Conversation (3)

This book is comprised of transcripts of three public discussions that addressed the different functions of the curator, from protector and selector of art and artists, to agitator and critic inside and outside the institution. Representing a variety of backgrounds, practices, and spaces, the speakers describe their recent projects and discuss their future goals and intentions. Other issues addressed include the “museumification” of contemporary art and the professionalisation of the art world. Biographical notes.
