Curating
キュレーション
Curating is the work of arranging works or objects for display and interpreting them for visitors.
01About
A curator is not only a person who writes labels. Tate describes curators as people who may acquire, care for and develop collections, arrange displays of collection and loaned works, and interpret them for the public. It also notes that independent curators can make exhibitions in many kinds of spaces, inside or outside established institutions and online. So when you visit, notice which works sit next to each other, how far apart they are, and what text accompanies them.
02In the gallery
Walk the exhibition twice: first follow its order, then test one different route and see what relationships appear.
03Notes
Read the exhibition's argument in the gaps and pairings between works.
