accomplishing curator
it´s faced now in between two faces
curated by Dara Birnbaum
accomplish curator: against curatorial the methods of destroying the
artist decided I to write this statement by that case was auflegehnt
of, which Sanja Ivekovic, an artist Croat, first preselected for the
Sao Paulo two-year 2002 happened through Leonida Kovac, the determined
curator, and as being by that resembles curator, thus, after nearly
half of the yearly the preparation Ivekovic of the project about night
speak, rejected, dismisses, impact in however. In place of Sanja
Ivekovic, decided Leonida Kovac, to suggest another artist! First of
all I am not to that Reasons interests, since it a reason is not here,
which counts. For me the question of reasons, and against arguments
does not exist the pro. A reason cannot that anyway be, the such a
decision through curator the legitimizes. Only the death of the artist
can do one suitable reason for replacing it ore it, after it by.himself
and publicly preselected is, around that was explained representative
or the artists, decision or quite give to be to the project. The
guideline is very simple, becomes curator a very large privilege given,
is this, the absolute privilege of the having the free hands for
preselecting any artist, but soon afterwards are it or they in the
position of a subordinated connection in the alliance of the
curatorkünstler, that means that it or it this privilege on the
selected artists bring. No positive reasons can be found for rejecting
the preselected artist, none instantiation can in explain to be taken
legitimization such an act. The moment, that curator the those pathetic
illustration of the energy further to play would like, its or “fragile”
energy, with an act of a refusal of the preselected Artist showing, he,
or she becomes a straight clown and a hybrid and the line of the
accident exceeds. Curator, not mould the name or a sex, that selected
the first of all and publicly designated if artists rejects, changes
itself or even in misery over. If it a court of the honour and the
basic rule for curators is (like it for journalists, as its two a
general is you accomplish, must critical work) such curator by those
Institute, by which two-year are criticized and by, it or they employed
and it or them the authority gave, around its to accomplish or
curatorial job. "performing arts" and "performance arts" are identical.
And all possible other artists, to be asked to take the place of Sanja
Ivekovic or of that to improve, must to rejected artists say: NO! If
such a Aktivistensolidarität and - too developed for movement possibly
another calibration caused between and curators are possible for
artists. In the end the artists do not have other way than to react
with all means there it no possible individual reason of legitimization
this handling also its or concepts is.
