From Concept to Exhibition: On Curating Modern and Contemporary Art from an Institutional Perspective
This lecture will focus on curating exhibitions of modern and contemporary art in an international institutional context. Particular attention will be paid to the specific institutional frameworks of exhibitions, ranging from publicly funded museums with in-house collections to privately funded exhibition halls without collections. Additionally, and from an international perspective, the reception of art exhibitions curated in and for different local contexts will be investigated. The first part of the lecture will present the exhibition tour of Museum Berggruen (Berlin) as a case study, analyzing curatorial requirements and challenges in presenting a former privately owned collection in diverse contexts – examining exhibitions in Tokyo, Osaka, Shanghai, and Beijing. The second part of the lecture will use the exhibition David Hockney. INSIGHTS at Kunstforum Wien (Vienna) as a case study on a retrospective solo exhibition at a privately funded exhibition hall. In this connection, questions such as institutional cooperation and loan procedures will be addressed. The lecture will comprise an analysis of the case studies, followed by a discussion with students.
