What is the role of the curator? What do curators do, and how do they engage with artists, space, institutions, and audiences? What kinds of research into artists and their work do curators conduct? What are the concepts and models that they use in the making of exhibitions?
This program, co-produced with the Mohile Parikh Center in Mumbai, examined an evolving definition of contemporary curatorial practice, shaped by institutional professionals, independent curators, and artists. Different curatorial models including solo and group exhibitions, film series, archives, and commissions will be considered and various contexts such as the museum, galleries, or festivals were examined. With group discussion, the local curatorial context was also mapped and explored.

Curatorial Intensive orientation. June 6, 2010.
Building on its history as a hub for curatorial ideas, ICI is supporting a new generation of curators to develop exhibition proposals.
The first iteration of The Curatorial Intensive took place in June 2010 in New York for emerging curators. From an open competition, 17 individuals were selected to come to New York and work with some of today’s leading curators and artists. Through a rigorous schedule of workshops, discussions and critiques, as well as site visits to local institutions and artist’s studios, each participant was led through the process of developing an idea for an exhibition into a full exhibition proposal.
The Curatorial Intensive is ICI’s short-term, low-cost training program that offers emerging curators the chance to develop their exhibition ideas and make connections to leaders in the field, providing the opportunity to forge new international networks through peer-group education. The Curatorial Intensive takes place twice annually in New York, and in other locations in conjunction with institutional partners worldwide.
