"Urban space is by nature a fertile ground for artistic expression. This is where is both the critical mass interest for creation - potentiating the offer - and who enjoys it, in a conjugation between the artist / creator and the audience / citizens. Urban space is also a privileged place for community, assuming a sense of a gathered inheritance of knowledges and of tangible and intangible testimonies that require constant molding, adapting and respect between the legacy, the memory and the innovation understood as agents of the dynamic and development of that same territory. At a time when public and urban art are highly expressive and produce a shocking reaction in the public, proliferating in unusual places as well as in others that are properly planned, it also has the potential to mobilize touristic flows and the capacity to generate new destinations, causing new demands and challenges to territorial management which concur with creative freedom and artistic innovation, opening up a privileged field of experimentation on and in public space. This point of contact between the artist [individual or collective] and the community, broadly understood as representative of both the citizen and the entities that manage the territory, is the core motif of the CreArt encounter held in Aveiro in June 2019."

Museum thinker & consultant💡I help museums innovate and manage systemic change across the institution ⚙️Mentor▪️Training and Research▪️Workshop facilitator▪️Exhibition development and outreach▪️socio-museology practice
A leaf from a journey's diary - Rethinking museums We understand museums as having a determinate form and recognise them as containers with contents inside. For the historic European museum this is even more so the case. Can’t it be different and, if we can change it, how might it look? The splendidly beautiful porcelain works of Chinese artist Lei Xue would be a good analogy to explain possible or likely futures for the historic European museum. Lei Xue has created a contemporary blend of tradition and modern consumption aesthetics by combining traditional Chinese porcellain techniques with soda-can forms. As tradition is grafted onto everyday consumption objects so can our understanding of the past be shaped by contemporary values. As traditional craftsmanship and materials are shaped into objects inspired by throw-aways from every day life so can the historic European museum reinvent intself in the contemporary. Let’s not forget that museums need artists not just to present them to their publics but to help them reinvent themselves. #innovatingthepast #historicmaterials #contemporarynarratives

Inside Out: Representing the Romantic Museum is a collaboration between Sophie Thomas, Rhys Juergenson, and Erin McCurdy of the Toronto Metropolitan University and York University Communication & Culture- Joint Graduate Program at Toronto Metropolitan University & York University The exhibition examines how #museum spaces were conceptualized and visually represented in two-dimensional media forms, drawing examples principally from metropolitan #London. Many of the museums of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century no longer exist. However, prints and paintings, often reproduced in #gallery guides, #periodicals, and ephemera, are valuable sources of information about the objects that they contained: from oddities and marvels to natural history specimens and revered #artworks. Such images also document the arrangement of objects and the display strategies employed by collectors and museums, as well as the visual idioms—and aesthetic categories—they used to capture and ‘frame’ their interiors. The contents of collections, and the manner in which they were presented to the world, closely reflect predominant paradigms for the organization of knowledge, which were undergoing significant change in the #Romantic period. The exhibition explores how public institutions and independent #collectors, in both public and private exhibition spaces, represented natural history, human biology, emerging technologies, and #archaeological discoveries, and how these displays were, in turn, represented by #artists. https://lnkd.in/gDGumeFa
