Review: By the reviews that accused him of name-dropping, I was expecting a self-important, art world snob. I was pleasantly surprised. His gentle and curious openness is exposed as he wanders through his life experiences that have inspired and changed him. He asks thoughtful questions and completely avoids “art-speak”. It was fascinating to see his approach to curating: to give an artist the opportunity “to make the impossible, possible”, rather than the usual thematic or chronological curating constructs. The book is about his Ways of Curating. They are adventures always inspired with/by a creative person that brings something new. This is not a boring how-to book ;) It’s an inspiring way to look at curating in a different way. Fun read too! Review: I enjoyed this beginning of this book which gave me enough knowledge to curate a show on my own. Since losing the book on the bus I will buy it again. Very imformative!

An insightful essay on seeing art… on understanding the curator's task of illumination and guidance in the process of seeing and "reading"art.

Excellent first person experiences on the various ways to approach mounting an art exhibition. Creative and informative.
