This discussion includes artists, writers and curators who initiate collaborative projects through forms as varied as open-source schools, experimental curatorial and exhibition programs, and new publishing platforms. A central question will be to investigate how the activity of collectivity might generate new aesthetic forms or models today.

Panelists:

Miles Coolidge, moderator
Stacey Allan, East of Borneo
Sean Dockray, Telic Arts Exchange, Public School
Patrick Meagher, Silvershed and Collective Show
Michael Minnelli, WPA
