Summer Love

So I've been avoiding the word work this summer, yet have still managed to edge out a few little nods into the cultural ocean...

I interview Scorpion Dagger for Dazed (the author of the gif above which could be a portrait of me this summer....)

I did a top ten Instagram round up also for Dazed

I reviewed three shows on Monocle24 - Energy Flash at MUHKA in Antwerp, Making and Unmaking at Camden Arts Centre, London and Dada Afrika at the Berlinische Galerie, Berlin

and I'm off to DJ at the Manifesta Night in Zurich on August 26 - RSVP here

The artist list for The Historical Exhibition of Manifesta11, that I am co curating has been announced - go see (a few missing names still being added including the amazing archive of Aaron Moulton) 

Too many to list here but here are some personal highlights include: Evelyne Axell, James Son Thomas, Giovanna Olmos, Paulina Olowska, Susan Hiller, Bhakti Baxter, Chris Burden, Aleksandra Domanovic, Michael Smith, Steven Claydon, Mark Leckey, Thomas Ruff, Frances Stark, Trisha Baga, Sophie Calle, Coco Fusco, Martine Syms, Jeremy Shaw amongst many other (around 100 artists in total...)

It's gonna be a busy couple of months...

Manifesta11 The Historical Exhibition

So been quite busy at the moment. I'm officially the co-curator of The Historical Exhibition of Manifesta11 which opens in Zurich this June. The artist list for my contextual show, which I have been curating with the main curator Christian Jankowski, gets announced April 5 and will take place across the city at the Kunsthalle Zurich, Migros Museum, Luma Foundation and Helmhaus. The theme of the biennial is What People Do For Money. Sneak peaks in the coming months.
