The 2019 edition of the Talks gathered together artists, curators and collectors to discuss a variety of different topics such as the crossovers between politics and art, the socialization of private institutions and collections, precarity and resistance and the preservation of cultural heritage.
In this lecture, Anna Santomauro (Programme Curator, Arts Catalyst, London) presented the curatorial approach that Arts Catalyst has been developing by working in between disciplines and situated knowledge. She encompassed some recent projects, including ‘Wrecked on The Intertidal Zone’ – a project about the changing ecology, society and industry of the Thames estuary -, and Test Sites – a series of inquiries of concern connected with environmental change.
