Description
Curating After the Global Roadmaps for the Present explores what it means to be global-or to be local-in the context of artistic, curatorial, and theoretical knowledge and practice. This volume brings together an international group of writers to discuss the implications of globalization on curating and locality. The contributors examine specific curatorial projects that may offer roadmaps for the globalized present, new institutional approaches, and ways of thinking, vocabularies, and strategies for moving forward. They consider the reassertion of nation-states, the diminishing of citizen and denizen rights, and the impact on local traditions and a sense of embeddedness. Through their work, the authors aim to challenge common assumptions about the universalization of art and its relationship with globalization, and to explore new possibilities for curating in the present.
