Description
Ways of Curating by Hans Ulrich Obrist and Asad Raza explores the dynamic nature of curation, revealing how it has evolved over time. From its origins in the 18th century to modern-day exhibitions, the authors examine the practice of curators, exhibition makers, and thinkers who have shaped the way we experience art and culture. Through a series of engaging stories and anecdotes, Obrist and Raza illustrate how curation is driven by curiosity and a desire to create the future. By tracing the paths of inspirational figures such as Diaghilev, they demonstrate that curation is far from a static practice, but rather a living, breathing process that continues to adapt and evolve. This book offers a fresh perspective on the role of curation in shaping our cultural landscape, making it an essential read for anyone interested in art, exhibitions, and the way we experience culture.
