razgraniavanje pojmova
Kustoska profesija oblik je kulturalne prakse vrlo fleksibilnog tipa. Ono to unutar nje moemo
oznaiti kao fiksno jest to da se bavi umjetnikim praksama i da se upisuje u ono to nazivamo
umjetniki sistem, koji je dio kulturnog i drutvenog polja. Prema uvakoviu, kustoske
prakse su teorijske i praktine, stvaralake, posrednike i birokratske aktivnosti u koncipiranju,
artikulaciji, organizaciji, izvoenju, kolekcioniranju, arhiviranju, dokumentiranju, predstavljanju
i promociji koncepcija umjetnosti, kulture i politike, umjetnikog rada, svijeta umjetnosti i
povijesti umjetnosti kroz kulturalne inst itucije i masovne medije.1
Za neke je kustos/ica slubenik/ica umjetnosti/umjetnika, katalizator/ica, medijator/ica, krit iar/
ka, po drugima povjesniar/ka umjetnosti, krijumar/ka, teoretiar/ka, aktivist/ica, menader/
ica, kulturalni/a radnik/ica. Sve u jednom. Svi ti denominatori istovremeno opisuju kontradikcije,
potencijale i paradokse prakse. No, bez obzira na to koji termin upotrebljavali, odgovornost
i otprije definiran zadatak isti su, a to je odabrati to e kao (umjetniko djelo) izdrati test
vremena, te kakoe se na taj rezidij gledati. Drugim rijeima, prenositi kulturu odnosno niz
interpretacija i znaenja te znaenjskih horizonata, a ne znanje o nekoj skupini neutralnih
predmeta na kojima je mogue daljnje neogranieno, otvoreno istraivanje. 2
presjek kustoske emancipacije
Kustoska profesija ponajvie se profesionalizira la kasnih ezdesetih godina sukladno s porastom
radikalnih i inovativnih umjetnikih i krit ikih praksi nastalih 60-ih i 70-ih koje su iniciralealternativan nain umjetnike produkcije, redefiniciju umjetnikog djela, mijenjanje umjetnikih

terminological clarification
Curatorial profession is a very f lexible cultural practice. What we can define as fixed within
that practice is the fact that it dea ls with art istic practices; moreover, it is inscribed in what is
commonly known as the art system, which is a part of the cultural a nd social field.
According to uvakovi, curatorial practices are those theoretical a nd practical activities
of creation, mediation, and administrat ion that contribute to the conception, art iculation,
organization, performance, collection, archivation, documentation, presentation, a nd
promotion of various concepts of art, culture, and politics, ar tistic work, art world, and art
history, through cultural i nstitutions and the mass media.1
For some, the curator is a servant of art/art ists, a cata lyser, mediator, and critic, while
according to others he or she is an ar t historian, smuggler, theoretician, activist, manager, and
cultura l worker. All in one person. All these denominators describe contradictions, potentials,
and paradoxes of this practice. But regardless of the term we use, the responsibilities and the
preset tasks remain the same, including the answering of questions such as what will(as anartwork) stand the test of ti me and how that residue wil l be looked upon. In other words, the
curators task is to transmit culture, seen as a set of i nterpretations and meaning and meaning
horizons not just a set of neutral objects on which open enquiry is then somehow possible. 2
a cross-section of curatorial emancipation
Curatorial profession has become largely professionalized in the late 1960s, following
the growth of radical and innovative artistic and critical practices that gave birth to a n
alternative mode of artistic production, triggering a redefinition of artworks, changi ng

podruje umjetnikog kritikog djelovanja izazvalo ve tih godina zasigurno je pojava novih
izlobenih modela, kao i reakcija na naputanje ustaljenih izlobenih prostora i izlazak u javni
prostor te naglaavanje izlobe kao diskurzivne forme koja isto tako moe biti ulina intervencija
koliko i stranica u k njizi ili predavanje. Gotovo istovremeno pojavljuju se i samostalni modeli
kustoskog djelovanja. Kustos se odvaja od muzejske zbirke, izlazi iz sjene umjetnike institucije,
sve je vie orijentiran na usku suradnju s umjetnicima te s vremenom postaje jedan od glavnih
protagonista u produkciji, prezentaciji i distribuciji umjetnikog djela (i openito unutar polja
suvremenih umjetnosti).3Pozicija Haralda Szeemana4se u internacionalnim okvir ima navodi
kao paradigmatska za taj slobodni pad tonije emancipaciju kustosa/ice kao samostalnog
izlobenogAusstellungsmachera. Bruce Altshuler e to razdoblje nazvati i razdobljem izdizanja
kustosa kao stvaratelja (rise of a curator as creator)5koje se vrlo esto navodi i uz tadanje
djelovanje izlobenih organizatora Pontusa Hultena, Setha Siegelabua, Kaspera Kniga.
ijekom 90-ih, posebice na internacionalnoj umjetnikoj sceni, biljei se kustoski boom. Po
mnogima kustoske prakse devedesetih godina oznaavaju utjecaj, mo i hegemoniju muzejskih
i izlobenih institucija te mre institucija (muzeji moderne i suvremene umjetnosti, trijenali,
bijenali) na aktualne nacionalne i internacionalne umjetnike pojave. Dominacija kustoskih praksi
tog razdoblja pretvara se u strukturirani profesionalni kustoski interes, to znai da kustoske
politike utjeu na karakter suvremene umjetnosti i formiranje kustoskih zvijezda unutar sustava
i ire.6Mnogi e isto ta ko rei da nakon eksperimentiranja koje se dogaa 70-ih i 80-ih godina
kustosi u 90-ima biraju temu i problematiziraju je preko umjetnika/umjetnikih radova. oprotagonistiko kuriranje je, po miljenju Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, budue direktorice izlobe
koja oznaava sam vrh kustoskog panteona Documente, dovelo i do mijeanja granica te
artistic conceptions, and questioning institutional venues. Among the changes that the field
of art criticism caused in those years, a particularly important one was the emergence of
new exhibition models, as well as the reaction to the abandonment of established exhibition
venues and coming out into public spaces, with an emphasis on exh ibit ion as a d isc ursive
form that can be a street intervention, but also a book page or a lecture. Almost at the same
time, one could witness the emergence of independent models of curatorial work. he curator
had become emancipated from the museum collections, he or she had stepped out of the
shadow of art institutions and was now more oriented towards collaboration with artists,
becoming with time one of the main agents in the production, presentation, and distribution
of artworks (and generally one of the main figures in the field of contemporary arts).3he
position of Harald Szeeman4has been mentioned internationally as a paradigm of that free
fall more precisely, of the curators emancipation as an independent Auste llungsm acher.
Bruce Altshuler once wrote that it was an era of the rise of a curator as creator 5and that
statement has often been associated with the activity of exhibition organizers such as PontusHulten, Seth Siegelaub, or Kasper Knig.
During the 1990s, one could witness a curatorial boom, especially on the international
art scene. It has been generally observed that the curatorial practices of the 90s reflected
the influence, power, and hegemony of museums and other exhibition venues, as well as
institutional networks (museums of modern and contemporary art, biennials, triennials)
with respect to the contemporary national and international phenomena in art. he
domination of curatorial practices was gradually turned into a structured, professional
interest of curators, which meant that the cu ratorial strategies inf luenced the character

No, nedostatak jasno definiranih metodologija, kustoskog teorijskog diskursa, kao i nedovrena
i fragmentarna povijest kustoskih praksi tih ist ih devedesetih, potiu kustose na auto-
referencijalnost i introspekciju, na potrebu za preispitivanjem i istraivanjem postojeih kustoskih
i izlagakih praksi, prvenstveno u obliku seminara, konferencija i diskusija. Raste broj kustoskih
edukacijskih programa,8ali i arhiva o kustoskim praksama.
Kustoske prakse danas su rastue polje znanja, na to ukazuje i proliferacija kustoskih programa
i publikacija koje ponajprije u ciklusima intervjua donose fragmente o onome to bi moglo
predstavljati tu profesiju. No, gotovo veina tih izdanja preispituje prostor bavljenja zapadne
scene u koju se ne uklapaju lokalne prakse kustosa s naih prostora. Zbog toga i u ovom broju
asopisa ivot umjetnostidonosimo niz priloga koji doprinose iroj lokalnoj kulturnoj sceni u
ciklusu intervjua pod nazivomRazgovori strategija pribliavanja kustoskih praksi , unutar kojih
sugovornici odgovaraju na odreeni broj pitanja, to ukazuje na vieslojnost i vieglasnost njihovih
pozicija i pristupa, ali i na specifinost konteksta u kojem rade.
relacija kustos umjetnik
Historiziramo izlobe kao drutvene injenice, ali se premalo bavimo kontekstualizacijom
umjetnikog rada osvijetenom jo od Duchampa. Pored toga, danas je potrebno odmaknuti fokus
od rada i usmjeriti ga na relacijsku socijalnu produkciju, iji je glavni proizvod izloba.
Naravno da nema kustosa bez umjetnika, ali ta afirmacija funkcionira i u drugom smjeru. Ovdje seodbija govoriti o tom suodnosu iz perspektive bilo kakve ovisnosti, osim one vezane uz umjetniku
produkciju kojom oba barataju. Ne moe se rei da suodnos kustosa i umjetnika ne poiva na
of contemporary art and the creation of curatorial celebrities, both within the system and
beyond.6Many would say that, after the phase of experimentation in the 70s and 80s, the
curators of the 90s were now able to select their topic and make it an issue through artists
and artworks. hat authorial curatorship has, according to Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, the
future director of the exhibition that marked the very pinnacle of the curators pantheon
Documenta resulted in blurred borders, initiating a debate on the division of roles between
curators and artists.7
However, the lack of clearly defined methodologies and theoretical curatorial discourse,
as well as the incomplete and fragmentary history of curatorial practices in the 1990s,
motivated the curators to engage in self-referentiality and introspection, questioning and
exploring the existing curatorial and exhibition practices, primarily in t he form of seminars,
conferences, and round tables. his resulted in an increase in educational programmes for
curators,8as well as archives specialized in curatorial practices.
oday, curatorial practices are a growing field of knowledge, which is indicated, among otherthings, by the proliferation of curatorial programmes and publications, which use mainly
series of interviews in order to present the profession, at least in fragments. However, most of
these publications thematize the Western scene and the local practices of our region barely
fit in. herefore, this issue of ivot umjetnosti includes a number of contributions discussing
the broader and local cultural scene through a set of interviews entitled Conversations
Strategy for Rapprochement with Curatorial Practices , in which various curators respond to
questions regarding their multifaceted and multi-voiced positions and approaches, but also
the specificity of the context in which they a re working.

tenzijama. Kako onih koje im izvana servira sada ve poprilino jasna drutvena odreenost
njihovih profesija, tako i onih na ljudskoj razini. No, isto tako ne moe se rei da ne postoji potreba
za jednim i drugim akterom u onome to bismo oznaili pojmom umjetnikog svijeta-sustava.
Umjetnost postoji kao drutvena praksa i bazira se na interakciji simbolikih odnosa. Ako je
kustoski koncept performativno polje uspostavljanja i razmjene simbolikih odnosa, gdje postoji
i simboliki, ali i ekonomski kapital kao okvir, sam kustos izvodi manipulaciju u artikulaciji. On
radi s drutvenim odnosima. I zapravo je ponajprije kulturni radnik koji doprinosi oblikovanju
drutvene svakodnevnice. On istovremeno radi i na proizvodnji znanja i na umreavanju, te
stvara drutvenu matricu. Umjetnik takoer sudjeluje u iscrtavanju te iste matrice, u kreativnom
suodnosu s gore navedenim. A publika ih, kao to i sama rije govori, prati u ispisivanju novih,
zajednikih matrica.
Izloba koju kurira umjetnik nikada nije toliko dobra kao ona koju kurira kustos, ali je uvijek
produktivnija od loe kustoske koncepcije, kae Liam Gil lick. Dijaloka forma i suradniki princip
su neupitni. Povjerenje takoer. Pa krenimo u suodnose
izloba kao poruka
Odnos izmeu umjetnika i kustosa danas je vidljiv ba u samoj izlobi. Linije kretanja suvremene
umjetnosti moemo promatrati i preko povijesti izlobi.9No, jo od paradigmatskih promjena
izazvanih dematerijalizacijom umjetnikog objekta izloba je za nas puno vie od white cube/black
boxprezentacije. Ne znai da se kao takva nije radila i prije, no bitna je razlika da se tek od 60-ihgodina takvom i poimala. Nije zbog toga niti udno da se kustoska autoreferencijalnost, teorijska
proizvodnja diskursa i vea drutvena vidljivost profesije dogodila upravo tada. Po Groysu, prolazei
the curator-artist relationship
We tend to historicise exhibitions, but we deal rarely with the artwork contextualisation and
relations that have been emphasized by Duchamp. Also, one should detach the focus from artwork
in order to focus on the relational social production, the main product of which is the exhibition.
Clearly, there are no curators without artists, but this assertion also functions in the opposite
direction. Here we wil l avoid discussing that correlation from any perspective of dependence,
except for the one that is linked to the artist ic production managed by both sides. One could not
say that the relationship between curators and ar tists is free of a ll tensions. Some of them are
imposed from the outside, by t he social determination of their professions, which has become
sufficiently clear by now, while others take place on the personal level. However, one must also say
that there is a need for both of these agents in what we may define as the art world/art system.
Art exists as a social practice based on the interaction of symbolic relations. If the curatorial
concept is a performative field for establishing and exchanging symbolic relations, with a
symbolic and also economic capital as its fra mework, then the curator performs manipulation inart iculation. Te curator works with socia l relations. Terefore, he or she is above all a cultural
worker, contributing to the formation of everyday life in a given society. At the same time, the
curator works on producing knowledge and on networking, creating a social matrix. Te art ist
participates in outl ining the same matrix, in a creative correlation with the above mentioned. Te
public, as implied by the very term, follows them by inscribing new, common matrices.
According to Liam Gillick, a show by an art ist can never be as good as a really good show by a
curator, but its always more productive than a bad show by a curator. Te form of dialogue and
the principle of collaboration are undeniable. And so is trust. So let us correlate

kroz 20. stoljee izlobena je povijest nedjeljiva od povijesti umjetnosti i izloba postaje medijem

Sagledavamo li kustoske prakse u hrvatskom kontekstu 70-ih godina, afirmacija kustoske
pozicije ostaje vezana uz umjetnike institucije,12ali se pojavljuje i velik broj samoorganiziranih
umjetnikih kolektiva/interesnih skupina koje se bave i kuriranjem te koje pokreu i vode
alternativne izlobene prostore.13Isto tako sa ma izloba se redefinira i u lokalnom kontekstu: izlazi
u izvaninstitucionalni i urbani prostor. e se akcije provlae i u osamdesetima, dok se u ratnim i
tranzicijskim 90-ima dogaa nagli prekid. Nakon tog razdoblja, usred normativnih procesa koji
vode k libera lnom kapita lizmu, vidljiva je odsutnost jasnih mehanizama umjetnikog trita , ali
i modernistiko strujanje postojeih institucijskih modela. Nezavisne organizacije koje se bave
jezikom i nainima kulturne produkcije od kraja 90-ih redefiniraju i uvijek iznova osvjeavaju
kustoske aktivnosti na lokalnom polju uvodei meudisciplinarne suradnike modele i konstantnopreispitivanje uloga i mapa kretanja kulture. Princip samoorganiziranosti i kritikih pozicija
je u dijalokom nastavku krit ikih umjetnikih praksi 70-ih, na to ukazuje i tekst Ane Devi,
eXhibition as a message
he correlation between artists and curators is today visible in the exhibitions as such. he
history of contemporary visual arts can also be viewed through t he history of exhibitions.9
However, since the paradigmatic change was caused by the dematerialisation of art objects,
exhibitions have become far more than mere white-cube/black-box presentations. It does not
mean that they were not produced that way before, but the essential difference is that this
fact has only been understood since 1960s. herefore, it is small wonder that the beginnings
of curatorial self-referentiality, theoretical discourse production, and the increased social
visibi lit y of the profession can be dated precis ely to those yea rs. According to Groys,
throughout the 20thcentury the history of exhibitions was indivisible from art history and
the exhibition was the medium through which most art gained its visibility it administered
cultural significance to art.10Exhibition is a complex medium, in which all elements
consciously or unconsciously contribute to the production of meaning, a cultural practice
that unites/converges norms and values, which implicitly includes ideological concepts.However, he or she will a lso speak of the indubitable change in the ex hibition paradigm.
In her essay entitled Turning, theoretician Irit Rogoff discusses educational platforms and
spaces for debate as the essence of that which constit utes the present day mostra. Likewise,
the principle of event is something that marks t he exhibitions of today. 11

a considerable number of self-organised artistic collectives or interest groups that engaged,
among other things, in curating, opening, and managing a lternative exhibition venues.13It
was also a time of exhibitions as street i nterventions, which brought about the redefinition of
exhibitions in the loca l context. hose act ions and intentions remained present throughout the
1980s, but this process was abruptly ha lted in the 1990s because of the war and the transition.
After that period, due to the normative processes leading towards liberal capitalism, one could
observe the absence of clear mechanisms in artist ic market, but also modernisation currents in
the existing institutional models. Independent organisations involved in the language and the
models of cultural production have been redefining and renewing the loca l curatorial act ivities
since the late 1990s, introducing interdisciplinary collaboration models and constantly
questioning the roles and maps of cultural movements. he principle of self-organisation
and the critical positions are evident in the continuation of dialogue between critical a rtistic
practices from the 1970s, an issue discussed in the article on Politicization of the Cultural Field:
Possibilities of a Critical Practiceby Ana Devi.Moreover, it must be emphasized that the affi rmation of the curator, as an important lin k in
the process of building up the system of visual art s, has not been sufficiently recognised in the
local broader cultural context. Institutions that should be the pri nciple mediators between the
public and the visua l art s (from museums to the universities) have remained rather invisible.
It is precisely because of this deficiency that the understanding and k nowledge of curatorial
practices has remained rather scarce or petr ified in t he pre-established, modernist notion about
the self-sufficiency of the ar tist as someone whose work necessarily communicates without an
intermediary and can therefore dispense with all further contextualisation.
