In this lecture, gallery directors Jessica Borusky of University of North Florida and Rachel Schmid of California Lutheran University discuss curatorial activism in today’s world, from academic galleries to public institutions to artist-run spaces. Dialogue will address such questions as, what does it mean to create polyvocal exhibitions, and why is this type of diversity important? What does curatorial activism look like, particularly through the lens of non-profit organizations and education? What problems related to gender and race are faced in the museum space, and what are the lasting effects of these issues? Two short presentations will be followed by a panel discussion moderated by Dr. Mary R. Springer.
