All the forums were
lively and well-attended, with discussions about how different curators
approached selecting and putting together exhibitions; how the exhibition
programs of museums and smaller art institutions function; the role of curators
vis-à-vis artists; the responsibilities of curators in relation to art makers
and the general public. Audio excerpts
from the forums will be available on the website in Summer 2010.
