POSTERThe Rui Cunha Foundation hosts today, Monday, December 16th at 6:30pm, the Book Presentation “Curadoria do Complexo e da Greve Aberta”, the first Portuguese translation of the original title “Curating the Complex & Open Strike” by Terry Smith, which also includes an additional essay, “Between languages, territories and paradigms”, by Margarida Saraiva, published by #circodeideias.

The lecture about contemporary curation will be held in English, featuring Australian author Terry Smith, via Zoom, and Margarida Saraiva, with the support and co-organization of BABEL – Cultural Organization.

«If we ask where the curating of art occurs these days – in which places, which kinds of place, and how – apparent answers immediately appear: everywhere, expanding as if to ubiquity. Yet at the same time, we sense, with fragile purpose». In this, his newest book, Terry Smith explores the contemporary contexts of curating, looking for less apparent answers.

Terry Smith (born Terence Edwin Smith, 1944) is an Australian art historian, art critic and artist who currently lives and works in Pittsburgh, New York, and Sydney. Since 2001 he has been Andrew W. Mellon Professor of Contemporary Art History and Theory in the Department of the History of Art and Architecture at the University of Pittsburgh. He also serves as a Board member of The Andy Warhol Museum, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
