Hans Ulrich Obrist - Sharp Tongues, Loose Lips, Open Eyes, Ears to the Ground

Following 'Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Curating But Were Afraid to Ask,' this second volume in the series on international curator Hans Ulrich Obrist presents a selection of his key writings from the past two decades, which elaborate on the manifold thinkers, curators, and events that influence his interdisciplinary practice of exhibition making. The collected essays form the compartments of Obrist's curatorial toolbox, along with elucidating his views on stewardship, patronage, and art itself. Influences and interlocutors cited and discussed here include, among others, Alexander Dorner, Edouard Glissant, Claude Levi-Strauss, Jean-Francois Lyotard, Dominique de Menil, Josef Ortner, Cedric Price, Sir John Soane and Harald Szeeman.
