A conversation by Ute Meta Bauer and Mark Nash, moderated by Ines Weizman.

‍The moving image has become one of the most important tools for social and aesthetic exchange, and that this dynamic has taken center stage within the art world and contemporary curatorial practice.Mark Nash’s recent publication Curating the Moving Image, is a collection of his curatorial writings for over the last decade or so, and has three thematic foci: Theatrical fields, on question of exhibition staging; Back to the Future - exhibitions exploring the legacy of actually existing socialism; and China as Method on the recent curatorial shift to Asia.Nash is joined by Ute Meta Bauer, curator of the current Diriyah Contemporary Art Biennale and Founding Director of the Center for Curatorial Art, Singapore, whose latest publication is Joan Jonas Moving Off the Land, and Ines Weizman, Head of Architectural research at the RCA to discuss curating and exhibition making as an affective, artistic and architectural practice.Their discussion will focus on the curated exhibition as a form of theatrical display, mediating between languages of architecture and choreography. They will also discuss the culture wars which have upended exhibition practice since the controversies of Documenta 15.
