Are you an artist who has dabbled in curating?
Or perhaps you’re someone who prefers working with others’ practices instead of your own? Maybe just curious about how this could work for you?
In this talk and Q&A we’ll cover:
- starting points
- deciding what is important to you
- making your own opportunities
- tools and resources
Nisbet will talk through her own multi-faceted curatorial practice with an introduction that explores the who, what, where, why and when of independent curatorial work.
