| RESHUFFLE: NOTIONS OF AN ITINERANT MUSEUM |
| SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
Saturday, February 25, 2 - 4 pm: Alternative spaces:
Yesterday Models, Current Demands. Informal talk with Joshua Decter,
Papo Colo and Dan Cameron The First event establishes a history under interpretation as a cornerstone for a call to institutional transformation. Alternative spaces, as yesterday’s practical models, are put into consideration in this panel, while addressing the possibilities and limits of these models in relation to the present artistic context. Our guest lecturers address these issues on the basis of their own curatorial experience with artistic spaces that wagered on their difference with mainstream ones.
Saturday, March 4, 4 - 6 pm: Subversion and Infiltration
Tactics Today. Film program with screenings of Köken Ergun (“eatmuseumeat”),
Gabriela Golder (“La Vaca”), Andrea Fraser (“Museum
Highlights: A Gallery Talk”), Anetta Mona Chisa & Lucia Tkacova
("Untitled"), Libia Pérez de Siles de Castro The second event presents a selection of contemporary videos that tackle critically with the institutional apparatus. These artworks have entailed a challenge to the system in which they nonetheless partake, pointing to concerns that must be addressed, in an institution’s need to respond to artistic practices. Furthermore, by considerations of its medium, works such as these allow for reflection of the possible conditions of itinerancy itself. Held at Bard College, this screening addresses the multiple audiences, particularly students, to be taken into account.
Saturday, March 11, 2 - 4 pm: The Next Museum: Versions
for the Future. Informal talk with Pablo Helguera, Pavillion Projects,
and Nicolas Guagnini. As a call for different models, the survey Re-Shuffle engages is also approached in a roundtable of artists whose work delves around concerns akin to ours. This discussion emphasizes the role of the artist in challenging prior models and proposing institutional alternatives to be developed, yet not as definite models, but as possible responses to specific junctures.
Ongoing: The Museum on the Heart on Your Sleeve
by artist collaborative Red 76. This project is to be developed throughout the five boroughs of New York City during the time of the exhibition (from February 24 to March 3). The work refers to a series of stories and items (collected in a previous project of the collective) dealing with the personal and the quotidian. The multi-faceted exhibit will take place each day at a different location, from kitchen tables in Queen, the Staten Island Ferry, parks benches in Central Park, to bar stools in Brooklyn. This investment in displacement and the everyday echoes Re-Shuffles premises, yet in terms of artistic practice, and follows the logic of site-intervention and responsiveness that animates our project.
