Curating in Context

The two-year-long Erasmus+ project co-organized between two NGOs (Tanzfabrik Berlin and Lokomotiva Skopje), and two Higher Education Institutions (Stockholm University of the Arts and the University of Zagreb) was developed in order to respond to the challenges that the growing influence of the concepts of curating and curatorial pose in the contemporary art field, beyond the sphere of visual arts. The project focuses on creating knowledge and opportunities for students, practitioners, curators, scholars, and cultural workers to critically reflect and address different socio-political and economic contexts, and develop curatorial methods to rethink the practices of performing arts in relation to activism, social movements, and self-organization. During the two years, the project will result in a series of meetings, public events, and various resources that will thematize collaborative learning approaches through curating between politics and policies and valorization of art with the greater goal of manifesting the impact of the cultural and civil sectors on society.
The project “Curating in Context” is supported by Erasmus +, EU programme for education, training, youth, and sport.

Курирање во контекст

Двогодишниот проект Еразмус+ ко-организиран меѓу две невладини организации (Танцфабрик Берлин и Локомотива Скопје) и две високообразовни институции (Стокхолм универзитет за уметности и Универзитет во Загреб, Академија за драмски уметности) беше развиен со цел да одговори на предизвиците со кои се зголемува влијанието на кураторска концепти и кураторската поставеност во областа на современата уметност, надвор од сферата на визуелните уметности. Проектот се фокусира на создавање знаење и можности за студентите, практичарите, кураторите, научниците и културните работници критички да ги рефлектираат и адресираат различните социо-политички и економски контексти и да развиваат кураторски методи за да ги преиспитаат практиките на изведувачките уметности во однос на активизмот, социјалните движења и самоорганизација. Во текот на две години, проектот ќе резултира со серија состаноци, јавни настани и различни ресурси, кои ќе тематизираат пристапи на колаборативни пристапи на учење преку курирање помеѓу политиката и јавните политики и валоризација на уметноста со цел да манифестира зголемено влијание на културниот и граѓанскиот сектор на општеството.
Проектот „Курирање во контекст“ е поддржан од Еразмус +, програма на ЕУ за образование, обука, млади и спорт.
