The program understands curatorship as exhibition praxis, allowing direct experimentation with the exhibition space. Additionally, the program will be reinforced with activities such as workshops, seminars, studio visits, meetings with art professionals and visits to exhibition spaces.
-
The residents registered within the Node Center's residency program will develop specific theoretical-practical research during their residency, which will include a participation on a publication and the curation of a final show. Each year, the center will be immersed in a specific line of research.
-
Moreover,participants are expected to take an active role in organizing the program (i.e., managing seminars, workshops, guest lectures,
exhibitions, etc.).
-
During 2011, the line of the program will be: 'The logic of the limit: transversal curatorial processes'. The different lines of research explore the curatorial practices that expandtheir own mechanisms beyond the normal 'taxonomic' processes of the art exhibition (i.e., classification, study, and exhibition), generating new discursive possibilities.
