some notes on curation team and ‘company she keeps’
Eastside projects in its description about “Display show” what it means to think of objects in display at art gallery — how the purpose of the objects change depends of where the objects are positioned.
“Can any object be separated from how it is shown, repaired, treated, classified, owned and valued? ‘Display Show’ follows a path that leads from doing-something-to- show-things (the technical term for which, in twentieth century art discourse, has come to be described as the verb ‘to display’), to the idea that those actions not only change the nature of what is displayed, but also transform both us and our environment.”
Following from the Eastsides projects, Céline Condorelli’s work, ‘The company she keeps’ seems to lay out the possibility of friendships within curation group/studio to engage with my self-publishing projects/essay. Condorelli empathised how important it is to ‘making things public’ and how it is a Process of connecting things and establishing relationships through the exchange of ideas and conversations.
I am thinking how this curation group can be a tool for us to support each other and expand our understanding about the space where we work within through the display of our work — can my drawing be read differently on display and how does it mean to it. Does it add? layer? meanings? or does it reduce the meaning?
Or does it matter at all for it to change
