Curating Time will focus on the challenges in viewership and exhibition practices related to the concept of time. Three prominent curators, Bill Horrigan, Nato Thompson and RoseLee Goldberg, will be joining us to speak about their backgrounds and to give their perspectives on new strategies in curatorial practice, citing examples from their portfolio of past and recent exhibitions. Each conversation series will include a short presentation by the curator, followed by questions and an informal discussion.
