The globalization of contemporary art and biennials has led to the circulation of works produced outside of Europe and North America within the Western cultural system. A related case is Latin American art, which despite its links to the Western tradition is often understood as "non Western." Artists and curators sometimes function as "native informants" legitimizing cravings for cultural diversity, that reinforce a Euro-American canon of modernity. We invite artists, curators, art historians or anthropologists to examine the ways in which art produced outside of Europe/North America is presented: Topics might include the curatorial premises and critical reception of exhibitions, the perspective of artists on the ways in which their work has been displayed and interpreted internationally, or the relation between "global" exhibitions and the art market.
Proposals should be sent by May 9, 2008, to:
