Agenda

The Agency with Maayan Sheleff at ICI Curatorial Hub, New York

Dor Guez, (Sa)mira, 2009, Video, 13:40 min, from Maayan Sheleff's exhibition Secondary Witness at ISCP from June 27- July 26, 2012
Speakers will engage with the idea of "the agency" through various projects, debating the possibility of art as a vehicle for social change, and the shift in the roles of both artist and curator on the border between art and activism. Participants include Maayan Sheleff, Curator, CCA Tel Aviv, recipient of ISCP’s 2012 Curator Award, and Chelsea Haines, Public Programs Manager, ICI, amongst others.

Sheleff is a Curator at the Center for Contemporary Art (CCA), Tel Aviv, and an independent curator. She is the Assistant Director and a faculty member at the Curatorial Studies Program of the Kibbutzim College of Education and the CCA. Maayan participated in the Fall 2011 Curatorial Intensive, Curating in the Public Realm.
