Ways of Curating

Insightful journey through the art of curation.

If you're intrigued by what goes on behind the art world's gallery doors, "Ways of Curating" is a window into that realm. Hans Ulrich Obrist shares his extensive experience, giving you a personal tour from past to present that challenges the idea of curation as anything but dynamic and future-forming. It's a fascinating read for anyone passionate about art, culture, and the unseen threads that weave them together.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Drawing on his own experiences and inspirations - from staging his first exhibition in his tiny Zurich kitchen in 1986 to encounters with artists, exhibition makers and thinkers - Hans Ulrich Obrist looks to inspire all those engaged in the creation of culture. Moving from meetings with artists to the creation of the first public museums in the 18th century, recounting the practice of inspirational figures such as Diaghilev, skipping between exhibitions, continents and centuries, Ways of Curating argues that curation is far from a static practice. Driven by curiosity, at its best it allows us to create the future.
