Curators in Space

Overview

If Flying Arts Alliance Inc have their way, a shift will take place in the art world. As part of their curators development program, the organisation has been nuturing the next group of folks that'll decide just how galleries will be decked out. Curators in Space is the next step.

From December 9 until January 20, the Judith Wright Centre of Contemporary Arts will showcase pieces selected by Zoe Blandford, Gillian Jones, Jo Kaspari and Emma McLean. And yes, the artists are important too, with the efforts of Duke Albada, Chris Bennie, Joachim Froese, Sharmila Nezovic and Jude Roberts on display.

What this combination of emerging talent offer is a shift in many ways, including in perspective. With change a constant in our lives, this collection attempts to understand the thrills, dread, adaptability and more it can inspire — and even sparks some of its own.
