Show notes

Ceri speaks to Inês Geraldes Cardoso, an assistant curator at the Barbican. Inês shares her experience in curating, her fascination with Frida Kahlo, and her recent work on Francis Alÿs' exhibition "Ricochet." Discover the intricacies of curating, the importance of play in art, and the evolving role of curator and artist. KEY TAKEAWAYS Inês' multicultural background and early exposure to diverse art forms shaped her curatorial approach, emphasising an omnivorous curiosity and openness to various cultural expressions. The curator's role extends beyond exhibition planning, involving research, interpretation, catalogue production, and collaborative projects with artists and local communities. Studio visits play a crucial role in exhibition development, allowing curators to discover new works and engage in dialogue that shapes the final presentation. Curating is increasingly seen as a relational practice, focusing on dialogue, collaboration, and the ability to expand the resonance of artists' work. Inês stresses the interdependence of artists and curators, encouraging ongoing relationships and experimentation beyond specific projects. Francis Alÿs' "Children's Games" series explores the universal nature of play while highlighting site-specific contexts, bridging macro and micro perspectives on human experience. The Barbican exhibition of Alÿs' work included new films shot in London, showcasing local children's games and expanding the artist's ongoing exploration of play. The exhibition aims to highlight the urgency of creating spaces for children to play, especially in urban environments with diminishing public spaces. BEST MOMENTS "I grew up in a very multicultural environment... so that's really from a very young age contributed to my understanding of culture as a multifarious, diverse, open thing." "Frida Kahlo was an artist that really made me want to be close to artists, understand the way they work and understand the ways in which the kind of completely left field sort of way of seeing and interpreting the world could shatter the way we think about gender, the way we think about love, the way we think about relationships, the way we think about politics." "I'm drawn to artists who are kind of deeply committed to research but also artists who have relational practices, who have socially, socially engaged practices." "There's this real sense of a kind of community in the, in the studio that kind of comes together." "Curating is, I think, first and foremost, a kind of relational practice, you know, it's about the kind of relationships that you have with, with artists and about, again, this idea of dialogue and a kind of act of almost radical listening." "Being an artist, being a curator, they're never independent practices. They're completely interdependent." "We really wanted, you know, play and children to be a central part of the show, not kind of a sort of add on."
