Many thanks to the curator Maria Isserlis for her lecture International Museum Project During Corona and discussing the works of our participants within the Studio Program at BAI | Berlin Artist Residency, Art School, Arts Incubator, and Live Online Courses & Classes.
“The lecture will present an international museum cooperation between Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden and the Tretyakov Gallery Moscow during corona times. Maria Isserlis will give an overall outline of the curatorial concept and the contemporary art as an intercultural link and a bridge between romanticism to the present. The exhibition architecture by Daniel Libeskind will be depicted as a conceptual framework. Interesting insights about the working process of and the multiple challenges will be introduced and evaluated.” (Text by courtesy of Maria Isserlis)
