Salon 19
Curatorial Insights 2/3
Free & open to all
With the support of Making Ways, the Spring/Summer term will also feature a trio of Curatorial Insights sessions. As an ongoing commitment to organisational transparency and the creation of inclusive spaces for shared learning throughout our public programme the Curatorial Insights sessions will profile curatorial thinking, attempting to offer an urgent demystification of the role and capacity of curators within the broader arts ecology.
Session three will feature the work and experience of Bloc Project’s Curator David McLeavy, alongside a guest curator Alexandra Warder, who is currently the Director of Bosse & Baum, London.
