Summary
Without evoking formal theory, these lectures explore and question ideas and fashions that dominate the current art world. Catherine David and Iwona Blazwick explore the curator's new profile; Jeroen Boomgaard and Koen Brams tackle theory and art; Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby question the relationship between design and art; Bart Lootsma and Camiel van Winkel look at art in public spaces; and J. Wesseling and K. Zijlmans discuss the position of non-western art in the west.
