This lecture is dedicated to practices of queer and feminist instituting within artistic and curatorial approaches. It will explore specific practices that question heteronormative and binary settings and conventional artistic and curatorial processes. Queer and feminist curating challenges the museum and exhibition as normalizing entities, where meanings are created and binary and heteronormative structures are reinforced. How can queer and feminist art as well as curatorial practices exist in institutional frameworks? And how can we contribute to changing institutions in a queer and feminist way?
Sylvia Sadzinski works at the intersection of contemporary art, curatorial practice and queer-feminist theory. Since 2019, she has been artistic co-director of the feminist art space alpha nova & galerie futura in Berlin. Here she regularly conceives and curates solo and group exhibitions as well as extensive discursive programmes consisting of lectures, conversations, screenings, readings, residencies and workshops as well as community projects. She has held guest lectureships at various international art academies and universities on art, visual culture and curatorial practice and currently teaches at the Berlin University of the Arts and the Node Centre for Curatorial Studies.
