The Winner Takes It All, Macro to Micro Subjectivity:
Selection and Decision Making
Moderated by Clare Butcher.
Speakers: Juan de Porras- Isla, Baha Görkem Yalim, Vincent van Velsen & Alix de Massiac.
'Duck or Penguin? Blue or Green? TV or Beamer? Selecting and rejecting are the essence in both the making and the circulation of art. Does the subjectivity of a few define success? Or do their choices respond to measurable and predictable terms?
In this Salon, part of the exhibition Selected, both cultural mediators and artists share their views and strategies around curating, choosing and awarding, and the implications of this processes modulating the artistic practice.
PROGRAMME
The salon opens at 3.30 PM with a performance by Mie Frederikke Fisher Christensen & Margaux Parillaud and an ongoing performance by Laura Klinkenberg. At 4PM Clare Butcher will open the floor for the speakers.
LOCATION
Castrum Peregrini and Everything Is Fucking Art BV (Beulingstraat 12+21)
