> About a context-constructivist approach to curating
>
> During Art Amsterdam/KunstRAI Foundation IZA presents, in close
> collaboration with several curtural institutes, the Close Connection
> 2006 programme. Over 22 international curators and art critics are
> invited to the Dutch capital. During their stay they give
> presentations and join debates: o.a. discussions in SMBA, Maison
> Descartes, SMCS op 11 and De Appel.
>
> The discussion will present examples of a context-constructivist mode
> of curating, and open up the forum into a discussion about the amount
> of artistic interference inherent in such a practice, as well as the
> ongoing curatorial colonisation of artistic strategy. A group have
> been brought together to elucidate on experience and propose the
> pitfalls of such an approach. Invited are Alexis Vaillant who curated
> with Alex Farquharson ‘Le Voyage Interieur’ in Paris, 2006; a short
> sound excerpt by Lonnie van Brummelen, as well as the curators of
> ‘Lippmann, Rosenthal & Co.’ and ‘Nova Zembla’ installations within
> “Mercury in Retrograde”, currently at De Appel.

> Date: May 5, 2006
