CURATING ART AFTER NEW MEDIA - PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT COURSE http://www.macurating.net/shortcourse.htm 24 February to 2 March 2019, Central London *I would recommend it to anyone who wants to expand their network and broaden their understanding of how curators do what they do.* Course participant from USA In 2019 this course will run for the 6th year. Past course attendees have included curators and researchers from Hong Kong, Bahrain, India, USA, Canada, Austria, The Netherlands, Greece, Ireland, France and the UK. This intensive week-long course in London is aimed at curators, exhibition organisers, educators and others working with contemporary art. The course will critically examine how contemporary curating can best match contemporary art practices, including practices that might be collaborative, or participatory. Since new media including social networking and open source have changed thinking on how art works in time and space, this course aims to update professional knowledge in the field. Visits to discuss with curators at organisations will include: TATE VICTORIA & ALBERT MUSEUM INIVA and previous years have also included: THE PHOTOGRAPHERS GALLERY ODI (OPEN DATA INSTITUTE) FURTHERFIELD TENDERPIXEL MACHINES ROOM WELLCOME COLLECTION Some participants have received Professsional Development grants from their local arts councils or PhD funders to attend this course For further details see: http://www.macurating.net/shortcourse.htm OR https://onlinestore.sunderland.ac.uk/product-catalogue/short-courses/short-courses/curating-art-after-new-media-professional-development-short-course ------------------------------------------------------------ Beryl Graham, Professor of New Media Art CRUMB web resource for new media art curators http://www.crumbweb.org Research Student Manager, Art and Design MA Curating Course Leader http://www.macurating.net Faculty of Arts, Design, and Media, University of Sunderland The David Puttnam Media Centre, St Peter's Way, Sunderland, SR6 0DD Tel: +44 191 515 2896 New Collecting: Exhibiting and Audiences, Ashgate. http://www.ashgate.com/ Rethinking Curating: Art After New Media, MIT Press. http://mitpress.mit.edu/books/rethinking-curating _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l@mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://mcn.edu/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/mcn-l@mcn.edu/
