Talk at 1014: Creating resonance – Contemporary Art Interventions in Museums and Public Spaces

Contemporary art installations evoke memories and create new contexts to buildings, places, and institutions. In view of the worldwide debate about the role of museums and the significance of art in public space, we invited practitioners and academics to discuss the role of temporary art installations in and around museums: Kate Bonansinga (University of Cincinnati) is a curator and researcher in the fields of Contemporary art, art in public space, and museum practice. Shanay Jhaveri is a curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and – among other exhibitions – curated the 2021 façade commission as well as the rooftop commission in the same year. German Artist Mischa Kuball’s work res.o.nant at the Jewish Museum Berlin serves as a reference point and context to this discussion, along with other works on display at 1014.

The talk will be followed by a reception.

Co-hosted in partnership with the New York office of the Ruhr University Bochum, TU Dortmund University, and the University of Duisburg-Essen.
