Curating Degree Zero Archive in Bergen


20. Sept. – 7. Oct 2007
CDZA in Bergen
Rakett
Bergen, Norway


The artist duo Rakett will be hosting the Curating Degree Zero Archive in Bergen September the 20th to October 7th 2007. With a focus on collaborative activity and mediation we will arrange talks, debates, performances, concerts and presentations together with invited artists, curators, architects, thinkers and other cultural producers. All events are from different perspectives, taking the Curating Degree Zero Archive material as a point of departure. During the project Rakett will have the archive as our extended plattform, and wish to take part in the public discussion around the expanding field of art and curatorial collaborative practices.

Curating Degree Zero was launched by Dorothee Richter and Barnaby Drabble to research, present and discuss changes in the practice of freelance curators, artist-curators, new-media curators and curatorial collaborations. Beginning in 1998 with a three-day symposium and an ensuing publication, the project went on to build an expanding archive about these practices. Between 2003 and 2008 the archive toured to 17 venues, where it was displayed, used and accompanied by a programme of live events and discussions.
