Curating Contemporary Art
Curating Contemporary Art
An exploration of critical and experimental approaches to curating contemporary art.
Referencing Roland Barthes’ text on writing, Le Degré zéro de l'écriture, the title of the project reflects its aim, not to define ‘curating’ but to observe practice in this field at “a sort of zero degree, pregnant with all past and future specifications”.
Curating Degree Zero was launched to research, present and discuss changes in the practice of freelance curators, artist-curators, new-media curators and curatorial collaborations. Beginning in 1998 with a three-day symposium and an ensuing publication, the project now focuses on an expanding archive about these practices, which is touring Europe as an exhibition, accompanied by a programme of live events and discussions.
The web site documents the activities of Curating Degree Zero, provides an overview and full bibliography of the archive, and reports on related exhibitions and events.
The archive is on display at the NABA in Milan from 31st May until 28th June 2006, as part of the Utopian Display Platform
