On Mediation:
Workshop on Critical Writing II
May, 2018 — Facultat de Geografia i Història, Universitat de Barcelona and Gallery àngels barcelona
We are glad to continue a new project started the last year within the framework of On Mediation. Training seminar on curatorial theories and practices, which is the Workshop on Critical Writing. This workshop will underscore the paradoxical nature of critical activity as a new mediation process. Under this point of view, we understand critical writing in the interspaces between visuality and verbality, between interpretation and judgement, between theory and empiricism, between subjectivity and normativity.
