The East Course curatorial course invites emerging curators to work
together with professionals in order to gain new skills and perspectives on
curating. East Course consists of intense sessions comprising lectures and
workshops. The program gives an opportunity to hear the freshest and most
powerful voices of the art world and the stories, strategies and goals that
inspire them. It expands on trajectories, methodologies and ideas specific
to “museum,” rarely addressed, perhaps even neglected within academic and
experimental curatorial programs which usually focus on the public and
non-profit spheres of contemporary art.

*Museum **forgotten by memory /// Lecture*

Today, institutions are more and more embedded in the fabric of the culture
industry while the museum should be a space where the meaning of things is
constantly negotiated.

How to aspire to undermine the cornerstones and principles of the museum?
Institutions should be not seen as spaces where to display art objects but
as contested spaces that can activate an ongoing process of
self-questioning. Imagination is a powerful tool to offer new possibilities
of exhibition making by withdrawing from the apparatus of reality.

*Structure of the course:*

Through this two-day programme, you will investigate different modes of
curatorial practice and build your knowledge and skills by engaging in
workshops, presentations, case-studies and discussions with curator Luca lo
Pinto in person.

The workshops aim to:

   - identify practices that try to trigger an impulse in local artistic
   and cultural life in contexts affected by global institutions and events;
   - highlight how the relationship between these different approaches to
   art can be problematic, productive or just parallel;
   - identify common strategies for developing generative practices
   directly related to these type of contextual situations.
