The Photographers’ Gallery, Thursday 6 April, 18.30
Posthuman curating: curating authenticity or the question of content online
The claim that curating is posthuman recognises the changing modes of
curating in the world of mass participation in and mass creation of
popular culture. It is no longer just about meaning making by art
professionals who commission, archive and interpret objects in museums’
collections but it defines a popular activity performed daily by agents
of different orders. Not just curators but users of social media, not
just people but algorithms and software are actively involved in
managing, organising and evaluating content. Curating has become a
practice that supports creation of narratives and online personas,
generation of data and content that is displayed and managed across
different social media platforms. While using digital objects and
networked images to represent identities and conceptualise ideas about
the world, the self and others, curating is firmly situated as an
element of computational cultures distributing, constructing and
performing ever new subjects, content, data, objects, and concepts.
This event will explore what and how is curated online. Showcasing three
different practices of curating and making art online the focus is on
what stories we tell, what objects are displayed and how they are
performed through curatorial and artistic practices and strategies online.
This is a free event and open to all but early booking is recommended.
