Abstract |
Are art and artists becoming mere fodder for eurocurators? Lately, the role of the curator, together with the meaning and structure of exhibitions, has been the focus of intense theorising and debate. In some ways the debate echoes Conceptual Art's reflexive investigation of the trems 'art' and 'artist' during the late 60s. If the pluralism of today's art is a sign of the redundancy of these investigations on the level of art and artists, it may also partly account for why these discussions have transferred to the seemingly narrower, meta-level of exhibition making. |
