Some
of the issues to be
expanded upon are: research as artistic
production; the problematic question
of agency within co-
production; professionalization versus the instinctual amateur; writing as curatorial practice; the exhibition as a form
of research action;
expanded notions
of the curatorial and the role
of research models and methodologies within these; art writing as a curatorial form, and the distinction between research into curatorial practice / exhibition histories and the curatorial as in itself a
mode of research practice.
Its focus on artistic programmes will enable different actors to
expand on present - day research interests,
modes of production and display, and how these curatorial practices can shape the institution that generates them.
