Critical Intimacies: Changing Relations
in the Production of Contemporary Art
04.03.2024, 19h00
Venue: Maumaus

The language of ‘care’ is trending in institutional presentations of contemporary art, where the value of representation is equated with a form of institutional care. Through the maintenance of administrative and bureaucratic systems that consolidate power within their own managerial infrastructures, however, these same cultural institutions internally obfuscate routes towards care for the relationships critical to the production of art that institutions seek to exhibit. This talk draws on the speaker’s recent public outings, and argues for a different form of relating in the production of art by tracing and defining working forms of ‘critical intimacy’ – an awareness, sensitivity and care for relationships between individuals who temporarily gather around institutions in the act of art production. This presentation asks: In what ways do relationships within and around artistic institutions affect the material conditions of an institutional art world? And what does ‘art work’ look like when practised through a reflexive approach of working in relation to, and in dialogue with others?
