                When Art Embraces the Planet. The Contemporary Exhibition Form and the Challenge of Multiple Archives<\/strong>
                \nMonica Juneja (Chair of Global Art History, Heidelberg Centre for Transcultural Studies, Heidelberg University)<\/p>\n

                The global and curatorial turns marking contemporary art worlds are frequently celebrated for re-inscribing the excluded in cultural institutions and aesthetic practices through narratives that aspire to be more complete and just. Does incorporating art form beyond the West within contemporary exhibition circuits, the smooth transition from “xenophobia to xenophilia” (Irit Rogoff) that marks modern multiculturalism, engender a discursive space to remap cultural geographies and theorize the dystopian\/disjunctive condition of contemporaneity, or does it merely answer global capitalism’s need for new commodities? Do new boundaries come into being in thewake of the connectivity that dissolves older ones? My discussion of these issues will revisit the famous – also controversial – exhibition of 1989,\u00a0Magiciens de la Terre<\/em>, conceptualized as the first planetary show of contemporary art that, at the same time, sought to challenge the conventions of exhibition-making within the narrow confines of the art world and its modernist taxonomic frames. Curated by a team headed by Jean-Hubert Martin, at the time Director of theMus\u00e9e d’Art Moderne, Centre Pompidou in Paris, the show aspired to create a display in which cultural differences could coexist without a homogenizing agenda. My investigation will follow its bold topography across continents to those sites where the works had travelled to Paris were produced and anchored, to examine their post-Magiciens<\/em> lives: my urge to read objects, their producers and curators coevally, while restoring to different sites their own historicity. The example of South Asia and its multiple archives will be used to draw out the complex histories of cultures that live in a permanent and fluctuating relationality with one another and whose dynamics get lost when we exclusively attend to dismantling the centrality of the so-called “West.” These multi-scalar stories sensitize us to new fault lines and the transcultural complexity of inclusion as a curatorial strategy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
