In this show we aim at problematizing the phenomenon of the curator and elements of the artist/curator relationship. Is the curator a personal shopper? Does being immersed in art history and theory and the left wing bias of art world academism compel curators to promote old paradigms and to remain in their comfort zone of prejudice not accepting that the fault lines of culture have moved on? Is the curator a parasite?
