This forum will explore the role of the contemporary curator in light of the findings of the CoUNTess Report on gender issues in the arts.
The panel will question and discuss if a gendering of opportunities occurs, contemporary curatorial approaches within the broader arts infrastructure, and what meaningful action looks like beyond rhetoric.
