This course offers an in-depth exploration of curatorial theory and practice, equipping students with the critical and practical skills necessary for exhibition-making, collection management, and institutional critique. Through readings, discussions, and hands-on projects, students will engage with contemporary debates in the field, including ethical considerations, community engagement, decolonial strategies, and digital curation. Case studies of significant exhibitions and curatorial models will provide insights into the evolving role of the curator in museums, galleries, and alternative spaces. Students will develop their own curatorial proposals, applying theoretical and methodological frameworks to real-world exhibition concepts. This course is ideal for students interested in pursuing careers in museums, galleries, or independent curatorial practice.
