Over time, this focus has evolved to embrace various feminist perspectives, including building and deconstructing archives and narratives, creating new interpretative frameworks, and identifying structural inequalities within the art world. In recent years, curating has increasingly explored evolving notions of citizenship, politics, and public participation, particularly in the context of social justice and activism.The assembly will feature panel presentations, keynote speakers, breakout sessions, and open discussions centered on pivotal questions: How can intersectional feminist curating inform pedagogical strategies in curatorial education? What methodologies can be employed to teach concepts of care, situatedness, collective action, and responsibility in curatorial practice? Additionally, we will explore the current landscape of intersectional feminist art criticism and writing, focusing not just on representing female artists or critiquing art history, but on the practice of feminist writing as a form of wor(l)d-building.The breakout sessions will be open to students, researchers, and the public, organised as closed workshops aligned with various assembly topics and presentations. These sessions aim to reflect on proposed feminist strategies, discuss alternative pedagogical approaches, and collaboratively develop a Code of Practice that offers actionable suggestions to reshape structures and curricula in art schools and institutions.
