Center for Curatorial Studies Presents
Opening Sentence
11:00 am – 6:00 pm EST/GMT-5
OPENING SENTENCE presents three perspectives on the Marieluise Hessel Collection, curated by the first-year students in the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College. The exhibition is comprised of three discrete chapters that coalesce into a larger narrative, based on the potentials of curating from the collection. Each room approaches different aspects of this introductory curatorial experience: the formation of meaning between object and viewer, the relationship between images and bodies, and the exposition of political agencies latent within each. Just as the opening sentence of a book functions as an invitation to the reader, the exhibition proposes openings for the viewer to navigate and engage with the collection via the selected artworks within each space.
