About this Event
The Curatorial Roundtable, an international forum for curators and institutional leaders to discuss formative and current projects, is hosted by Steven Henry Madoff, Founding Chair of the MA Curatorial Practice at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.
For this session of the Curatorial Roundtable, Nam will talk about what she calls “curating for places and spaces,” discussing her work at Harvard University’s Carpenter Center, Ballroom Marfa, and the Wattis. She’ll discuss the ways she’s worked with artists she has exhibited in terms of physical space, historical context, and audience.
