Erik Vilím
Contemporary curating has undergone changes. From efforts to build distance and protect a balanced reflexive position it has shifted towards empathy, cooperation and attempts to dehierarchize. Naturally, this is not always the case, but Jakub Adamec is a good example of the fruit that this type of curatorial work may bear.
Born in Jakarta, Indonesia, 1984, Grace Samboh lives in between Yogyakarta and Medan, Indonesia. Due to questioning (a little bit) too many things all at once, she does curatorial work as well as research. She truly believes that every person needs at least three copies of themselves.
