Event Maria Lind: Six Moves Towards a Methodology

Maria Lind: Six Moves Towards a Methodology

Talk

24 March 2024
3.00PM–4.30PM

Renowned Swedish curator Maria Lind will talk about her professional trajectory, and how her context-sensitive curatorial methodology—involving self institutionalisation, displacement, art-centricity, embeddedness, pervasive eclecticism, and proximity—developed along the way. After the talk, please join us for a reception.
