Visual and Cultural Research Centre from Skopje, Macedonia is organizing the project Curatorial Translation. Project aims to investigate, contextualise and question various curatorial theories and practices. The ultimate objectives of Curatorial Translation are to imagine, propose and develop a platform for new models of curatorial discourses and practices that are equally informed of theoretical and art concepts. The project will address the question whether curatorial projects can be appropriate means for facilitating the processes of negotiation of cultural, ethnic and gender differences, and will attempt on activating the awareness for urgent need for social change and for overcoming of hegemonic curating. The potentials of the curatorial profession as a means for intercultural knowledge translation and production will be in focus throughout various programme events. The project particularly focuses on curatorship in the Balkan region during the transitional period. Throughout various lectures, workshops, presentations, conferences and meetings the established curators, theorists, artists, critics, journalists and young professionals will address various specific professional issues:
• Translating theory into curating
• Intercultural curatorial translation
• Translational relations between curatorial concepts and art works
