Predavanje: Tia Čiček, entangled research, entangled curating

S velikim zadovoljstvom na Booksi u parku ugošćavamo program naših kolegica iz kustoskog kolektiva WHW.

Ciklus diskurzivnog programa nastavljamo predavanjem i razgovorom s Tiom Čiček, koji se bave kustoskim i spisateljskim praksama.
 
Polazeći od kuriranja s brigom, WHW zajedno sa zajednicom promišlja manje ekstraktivne načine rada u kojima suradnje nisu prekarna nužnost, već uvjet mogućnosti. U svojoj najavi ovog predavanja objašnjavaju:  "Ako naše ideje i prakse shvatimo kao dio većeg isprepletanja, raditi zajedno i sporije prestaje biti ideal i postaje metoda. Predavanje se igra idejom kuriranja i istraživanja kao procesno orijentirane prakse koja ih isprepliće i opire se ekstrakciji te stavlja odnose i bića iznad rezultata. 

Tia Čiček bave se kuriranjem, pisanjem i istraživanjem. Bili su zaduženi za program Galerije Škuc od 2020. do 2025. godine, trenutno surađuju s Maskom Ljubljana i vode, zajedno s drugima, Školu za kustoske prakse i kritičko pisanje Svijet umjetnosti u Ljubljani. S fokusom na suradničke izložbe/stvaranje projekata oni preuzimaju metodologiju brige kao i feminističke i queer metodologije za temelj suradnje i rasprava. Njihovo kustosko istraživanje - isprepleteno kuriranje - uvodi povezanost u brigu za sve vrste, ne samo čovjeka, uključene u suvremenu reprezentaciju umjetnosti i raspravu o njoj."
 
Predavanje je dio šireg diskurzivnog okvira WHW Remember Freedom koji podržavaju Gradski ured za kulturu i civilno društvo Grada Zagreba i Zaklada Kultura nova. Pokrenut 2025. godine ovaj program se naslanja na govor kojim je 2014. godine književnica Ursula LeGuin potaknula društvo da ne zaboravi slobodu umjetnika - “realista šire realnosti.”
Program će se održati na engleskom jeziku.  
 
---------------------------------------
We are very happy to host a programme by our colleagues from the curatorial collective WHW as part of Booksa in the Park.

WHW curatorial collective continue ongoing discursive program with a lecture and conversation with the curator and writer Tia Čiček.

Departing from the notion of care curating, WHW will think together about less extractive ways of working, through which collaborations are not simply a necessity borne of precarity, but also a condition of possibility.

WHW invites: "If we understand our ideas and practices as part of a larger entanglement, working together and working more slowly stops being an unobtainable ideal and instead becomes a viable method. This talk plays with an idea of research and curating as process-oriented practices that resist extraction and center relationships over results.
Tia Čiček is a curator, writer, and researcher. From 2020 until 2025, they were programming Škuc Gallery in Ljubljana, where they are currently collaborating with Maska and co-leading the World of Art School for Curatorial Practices and Critical Writing. Focusing on collaborative exhibition/project-making, they assume care, feminist, and queer methodologies as the basis of cooperation and discussions. Their curatorial research–entangled curating–introduces connectedness in care for all more-than-human species involved in contemporary art representation and discussion."
 
This talk will take place under the larger umbrella of WHW’s discursive framework, Remember Freedom. Launched in 2025, this program draws its inspiration from a 2014 speech in which Ursula LeGuin urged society to tend to its artists - ˝the realists of a larger reality.˝

The programme will be held in English.
 
The program is supported by: Office for Culture and Civil Society of the City of Zagreb and Kultura Nova Foundation.
