CURATORIAL DICTIONARY: AN EXHIBITION
tranzit.hu, Budapest, December 6-7, 2013
The first phase of the Curatorial Dictionary, a long-term research project, was launched and presented with a two-day exhibition in December 2013, at Mayakovsky 102, the open office of tranzit.hu in Budapest. The exhibition featured an installation of six video interviews. The interviews were made with individuals working in the contemporary art field in Hungary and Eastern Europe, who reflected through their own projects on some of the concepts and the framework of the dictionary. The interviews are also preparations for the next phase of the project, when we plan to differentiate the dominant, “international” curatorial discourse with practices and reflections from various cultural positions, which are frequently missing from this discourse.
Participants of the video interviews are Barnabás Bencsik (curator, Budapest) Szabolcs KissPál (artist, Budapest), Hajnalka Somogyi (curator, Budapest), Attila Tordai-S. (curator, tranzit.ro, Cluj), Jelena Vesić (independent curator, writer, Belgrade), and Raluca Voinea (curator, tranzit.ro, Bucharest).
