Presented in partnership with Samsung, Sotheby’s partner for the New York Marquee Sales this November, join us to explore some exciting recent developments in the curatorial field around modern and contemporary art, focusing on the work of three extremely talented international curators. Art historian, critic and curator Mark Godfrey, curator at Barbican Art Gallery Eleanor Nairne, curator at the New Museum Margot Norton and Worldwide Head of Gallery & Private Dealer Services at Sotheby’s Noah Horowitz discuss the process of curating exhibitions of artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Lee Krasner, Sarah Lucas, Franz West and Vincent Van Gogh, as well as the new trends in curating that have emerged since the pandemic.

Hi Southebys, , would you'll ever consider having music curation incorporated in your visual art exhibitions ?

[AEZaubermann]

So much bullshit I do not know where to start, none of these, neither that artists, whatever that word means, nor the curators are members of the craft, they are military-industrial complex tourist industry employees!

Pretentious and presumptous to term curating an 'art'. Organising the display of artworks is a skill, yes. Not an art. It would make for an interesting debate, though!
