On curating immateriality

Within thwe context of The Listening Biennial, the Municipal Galleries organize a conversation bewtween Brandon La Belle, Diretor of the Biennial, and Luísa Santos, curator of the exhibition at Galeria Quadrum.

THE LISTENING BIENNIAL draws attention to listening as a relational capacity, a philosophical and political proposition, a creative practice, and research framework. From radical empathy to weak ontology, poetic refusal to diasporic resistance, eavesdropping to intimate envelopment, listening wields a creative and critical force that may contribute to maintaining the diversity of our social adventure.

In this talk, Brandon LaBelle, director of the Biennial, and Luísa Santos, co-curator of the 2nd edition of the Biennial, will be walking the audiences through some of the paths of curating immateriality, which, in the 2nd edition of the Biennial, are drawn from ecologies of attention.
