Curational
Practice in Alternative Spaces
Lecture
by Ute Ritschel
Tuesday
October 17th
5:30pm
Morgridge Auditorium (Room 1100)
Grainger Hall
Ute Ritschel
is an independent curator from Darmstadt, Germany. Since 1995 she has
curated her own art projects in public and partly-public spaces. Most
of her exhibitions, performance events, and Eat-Art works are
site-specific and shown outdoors. The Darmstadt Garden and Art Biannual
"Vogelfrei" happened in 38 privat gardens in 2005 under the
theme of "ParadiseGardens". The "International Forest Art
Path" is a 3,3 km walking
path in a centrally located forest. The 2006 theme was "Laboratory"
- a cooperation between artists and scientists. These exhibitions are
made for a broad and diverse audience and often evoke the sense of discovery.
Besides presenting
her curational work, Ute Ritschel will talk about the upcoming seminar
"Alternative Curational Practice" and the connected symposium
on "Native and Invasive", which will happen in the Spring Term
of
2007. She would like to invite students of diverse artistic and theoretical
backgrounds.
