Curatorial activism : towards an ethics of curating / by Reilly, Maura,author.(CARDINAL)281485; Lippard, Lucy R.,writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)142270;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 232-235) and index.Foreword / Lucy R. Lippard -- Preface -- What is curatorial activism? -- Resisting masculinism and sexism -- Tackling white privilege and Western-centrism -- Challenging heterocentrism and lesbo-homophobia -- A call to arms: Strategies for change.Current art world statistics demonstrate that the fight for gender and race equality in the art world is far from over: only sixteen percent of this year's Venice Biennale artists were female; only fourteen percent of the work displayed at MoMA in 2016 was by nonwhite artists; only a third of artists represented by U.S. galleries are female, but over two-thirds of students enrolled in art and art-history programs are young women. Arranged in thematic sections focusing on feminism, race, and sexuality, Curatorial Activism examines and illustrates pioneering examples of exhibitions that have broken down boundaries and demonstrated that new approaches are possible, from Linda Nochlin's 'Women Artists' at LACMA in the mid-1970s to Jean-Hubert Martin's 'Carambolages' in 2016 at the Grand Palais in Paris. Including interviews with pioneering curators such as Okwui Enwezor, Linda Nochlin, Jean-Hubert Martin, and Nan Goldin, this volume is both an invaluable source of practical information for those who understand that institutions must be a driving force in this area and a vital source of inspiration for today's expanding new generation of curators.

"Art university student Nagi Kitagawa is hopelessly in love with Yu Yamasaki, his senpai in the folk music club who also happens to be his next-door neighbor. Yu seems to have it all--good looks, a great personality, and he's also super popular--so Nagi can't help but think he'd never fall for a shy, innocent country bumpkin like him. One night, after drinking too much at one of their club get-togethers, Nagi helps a drunk Yu get home safe--but before he can go back to his own apartment, Yu wraps Nagi in his arms and falls asleep, trapping Hagi in his embrace. Nagi sneaks out the next morning, careful not to wake Yu up, and vows to keep the incident a secret. But when Nagi finds himself growing closer and closer to Yu, his unrequited feelings only grow stronger...but could it be his love isn't as one-sided as he thinks it is...?"--Back cover.Older Teen (16+)
