Description
Curatorial Activism Towards an Ethics of Curating by Maura Reilly is a comprehensive guide to new curatorial strategies for promoting equality in the art world. The book examines pioneering examples of exhibitions that have challenged racial and gender disparities, and provides valuable insights into the work of influential curators. Through its thematic sections on feminism, race, and sexuality, the book showcases key exhibitions that have pushed boundaries and demonstrated the power of new approaches. Profiles of exhibitions by leading curators, including Linda Nochlin, Jean-Hubert Martin, and Nan Goldin, offer a wealth of practical information and inspiration for today's curators. With a foreword by Lucy Lippard, this volume is an invaluable resource for those seeking to drive change in the art world, and a vital source of inspiration for the next generation of curators.
