International Curating Symposium The Papers of the Exhibition (1977-2017)

Presentation of Communications

Azkuna Zentroa opens the call for the presentation of communications for the 5th and final meeting of The Papers of the Exhibition (1977-2017) on 28th October. This International Curating Symposium organised by Bulegoa z/b and Azkuna Zentroa - Alhóndiga Bilbao, analyses specific exhibitions held since 1977, a year that to quote Franco “Bifo” Berardi, launches the time “after the future”.

This last edition focuses on the 2007-2017 decade, which coincides with the onset of what is known as a “new paradigm”. It starts with the financial crisis of 2007-2008, continues with the protest movements of the following decade (Arab Spring, 15M, and Occupy Wall Street) and ends with Donald Trump winning the US presidency. The curatorship seminar aims to approach the different aspects of exhibition, i.e. the cultural object responding to the historical conditions under which it takes place, the institutional form that legitimises the representations displayed, the place for experimentation and the production of thought, an ephemeral device favouring moments of attention, etc. In addition to the 6 guest speakers, the programme includes 4 communications chosen after reviewing the abstracts. Period for receipt of abstracts: 28th October, 2022 > 9th January, 2023
