Cross-continental Conversations in The Cone of Uncertainty
Cross-continental Conversations in The Cone of Uncertainty is a panel conversation gathering four curators from across the globe involved in mounting exhibitions of artist Haegue Yang, to speak about the challenges of producing exhibitions during a pandemic and amidst global turmoil. The discussion will also comment on how the current situation has affected art and other cultural institutions in their own contexts (Europe, Asia and North America), and the responses made by their local community.
The conversation features Jihoi Lee, Curator at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul, Korea; Adelina Vlas, Associate Curator at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, Canada; and Anne Barlow, Director and Curator at Tate St Ives in Cornwall, UK. Joselina Cruz, Director and Curator, at the DLS-CSB Museum of Contemporary Art and Design (MCAD), Manila, Philippines, will be moderating the panel conversation.
