Since the 4th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art took place in 2006, every iteration of the Berlin Biennale has featured a Curators Workshop. Aimed at emerging curators from around the world, it serves as a platform for professional development and international networking. Originally established as the Young Curators Workshop with a focus on fostering new talent, the program has since become an integral part of the Berlin Biennale and will be hosted once again for the 13th edition. This weeklong program encompasses public talks as well as encounters with key figures from Berlin’s cultural sector.
This edition of the Curators Workshop, entitled Fugitive Acts: Art and Politics, took place from September 1 to 7, and considered the place of politics within contemporary exhibition making, which the participants examined in various formats.
