[curatorial.net] To White Cube or to Not White Cube?

[Lucy Gibson]

Dialogue journal would like to invite you to join us in the Axis debating
chambers for our live online debate on curating in alternative non-gallery
spaces. 

We have invited The Dirty Collective
<http://www.axisweb.org/dlAUTH.aspx?AUTHORID=100>  as our in-house guest
debating team.  Having written the house motion, they've now split
themselves into opposing teams to make their supporting and opposing
arguments. Along with guest contributor Peter
<http://www.axisweb.org/dlAUTH.aspx?AUTHORID=101>  Lewis they will initiate
and maintain the discussion.

The debate is open NOW until 7 July
 



'Exhibitions in Alternative-Non-White-Non-Gallery spaces negatively affect
interpretations a spectator is encouraged to think about, since they often
speak for and over individual works'








 

We invite you to join us in the debate; whether you are 'for' or 'against',
we want to hear what you have to say.
