The Producers.Contemporary Curators in Conversation (v.4)

"The Producers is a unique and ongoing series of public debates on the theme of curatorship, organised by artist and Baltic Chair in Contemporary Art at the University of Newcastle, Susan Hiller. Since its inception in March 2000, ´The Producers´ has brought together curators, exhibition organizers, artists and other creative practitioners to discuss the changing role of the curator in the field of contemporary art.

Issues addressed in this series include the Œmuseumification¹ of contemporary art and culture, the different functions of the curator from caretaker and selector to agitator, and the role of art schools within an increasingly professionalized art world."
