MA V356PP Curating with Professional Placement
As part of the final assessment of the exhibition option on the MA in Curating course, you will submit a report on the exhibition project that you will have been involved with. This is written individually by each member of the exhibition group and is assessed and marked as individual coursework.
As an evaluation tool, this document will focus on the successes of the exhibition project as well as give you the opportunity to develop a critical response to what you have learned from the experience of organising your exhibition.
The individual exhibition portfolio is a document in which you will give a detailed description of the workings of whole exhibition project, as well as an analysis of the project. You will also outline your roles and responsibilities within your group, and you will be asked to assess and evaluate your own performance, as well as the performance of the group as a whole in project-managing the exhibition.
The aims of this module are:
- To gain knowledge of, and reflective capacity in, curatorial practice.
- To develop specific practice-led skills development in particular aspects of curatorial practice.
- To develop real-world collaboration and collective project skills and experience.
By the end of the module, students will be expected to be able to:
- Gain practical experience and skills development in multiple aspects of preparing a contemporary gallery exhibition.
- Be able to reflect critically on their own practice and that of others.
- Gain experience in negotiated team and collective work on curatorial projects.
- Develop awareness and ability to engage with practice-led debates and discussions in curating.
No additional information available.
This module will be delivered via:
- Weekly seminar discussions.
- Irregular additional supervision sessions.
