Can art make cities, can new museums rescue cities from obscurity and generate economic well-being: article on this new museum in Guardian.
But
One of the early programmes is with Swiss artist Thomas Hirschorn who will facilitate a workshop of learning exchange - knowledge exchange. “What can I learn from you. What can you learn from me“
In its outline the workshop proposes to bring people together for informal exchange of competencies. Why, in this museum that holds a collection of Indigenous works, are the indigenous knowledge exchange people missing? Why is it not a Canadian Indigenous artist running this?
Is this the hero artist overlaid on the territory ... it seems wrong on the surface, maybe there is something behind this we cannot be privilege to.
Everything looks like ngapartji-ngapartji principles co-opted... and we wait, you wait..
