I Hope This Message Finds You Well is a podcast on curating hosted by Kris Dittel and Eloise Sweetman. In this episode we talk to Cédric Fauq, recently appointed chief curator at Capc – Musée d'Art Contemporain de Bordeaux.
In this joyful conversation full of laughter, we also discuss important issues, such as why and if the exhibition as a format should be abolished, and the internal double bind we share when working with this format. Cédric also talks about the issues of class and Blackness and how he works with them via exhibitions and mediation. Further, we discuss the curator as a figure of power and how can we dismantle this figuration; and how to “occupy” or “take space” as curators, artists and institutions in the public realm.
