In addition to taking place in person at RU, this program will be streamed online via Zoom at this link.
As part of RU’s Meet Over Lunch series, please join us for a talk by Seoul-based RU resident curator Taeho Choi, who will reflect on how his curatorial practice has evolved through exhibitions and international collaborations developed while working between South Korea and the Baltic region, Spain, France, Slovakia, Taiwan, and now New York.
Taeho’s work initially began with an interest in mobility, focusing on how artists, artworks, and ideas move across different places and cultural contexts. Over time, however, his attention shifted from mobility itself to what mobility makes possible. He has become increasingly interested in how movement creates opportunities for new encounters, opens dialogue across different cultural and institutional contexts, builds trust, and develops into long-term collaborations and international artistic networks.
Drawing on these experiences, Taeho will discuss curating not simply as the making of exhibitions, but as a practice of connecting different cultural contexts and building lasting relationships. Through a selection of collaborative projects, he will share his explorations about how international collaborations begin, evolve, and continue beyond the exhibition itself, creating new possibilities for exchange and future partnerships.
This presentation will also introduce his current research conducted at Residency Unlimited, where Taeho continues to explore how curatorial practice can contribute to sustainable international exchange and the development of cultural infrastructure beyond individual projects.
