We’re back in New York! Kim sits down with Dia Art Foundation curator Matilde Guidelli Guidi. The two unpack the central question of what a curator truly is and the work that they do to take an artist’s ideas into reality. Covering Dia’s programming (encompassing both changing and permanent sites and the work of a focused group of artists across the 1960s and 70s), Kim and Matilde chat about the process of realizing works sited in the natural landscape, the complexities of pulling off year-long exhibitions, and reimagining the gallery as a discursive and community space. Finally, Matilde gives us an overview of one day in a curator’s life (and it’s jam-packed, as you might expect)!
