All About Curating (AAC) warmly invites art institutions worldwide to join us in an exciting opportunity to collaborate and host AAC initiatives. As a platform rooted in Berlin but with a vision to grow roots globally, AAC is eager to establish meaningful partnerships that foster dialogue and collaboration in curatorial practices.

 

About All About Curating (AAC)

All About Curating (AAC) is a unique global collective of 61 art professionals from 37 countries, dedicated to exploring innovative methods of collaboration by transcending geographical, cultural, and institutional boundaries. By bringing together a diverse array of curators, artists, researchers, art managers, editors, grant writers, cultural managers, and other art workers, AAC creates a dynamic and inclusive platform that supports innovative curatorial practices and collaborative efforts.

​

AAC is committed to centralizing essential information about curatorial practices worldwide.  Instead of creating a bubble of curators, by the curators, and for the curators, it embraces diverse voices and perspectives from all relevant stakeholders. This platform goes beyond the traditional confines of curatorship as individualistic and hierarchical to a more inclusive, horizontal, and collective approach.

 

AAC envisions itself as the leading platform for curatorial practice, cultivating a vibrant and inclusive global art community. By centralizing information and promoting collaborative efforts, AAC enhances the field of curation and supports the growth and development of art professionals worldwide. Its mission is to overcome barriers and create a cohesive, cooperative network that reflects the rich diversity of the global art world.
