Ahead of her official appointment as Tai Kwun’s senior curator for heritage & digital, Ying Kwok takes us through a year of exhibitions, highlighting the role of a curator in shaping artists, art and the art world at large.
The prevalence of the term “curated” in contemporary culture has undoubtedly undermined the role of an art curator – these days, the word has devolved into a fancier term for “selected”. But it would be a mistake to assume that curators in an art-world context do no more than choose which paintings hang upon a wall in a show. That part is probably the easiest bit of Ying Kwok’s job.

A campaign featuring striking creative from Manchester s Instruct Studio launches today (May 17th) and encourages audiences to return to venues across the city as the country enters the next stage of the roadmap out of lockdown.
The campaign is titled #HereForCultureMCR, and has been produced by a consortium of more than 20 arts organisations in the city to show off everything they have to offer and work towards recovery after a particularly challenging period for the sector.
It encompasses a poster, radio and digital campaign which went live today, featuring creative by Instruct. There s bold and emotive visuals alongside lines of poetry designed to inspire and capture audience s attention.
