ALTRUISM as ARTRUISM
Archív solidarity


Social curating – an ongoing project of Michal Murin of the artist Milan Adamčiak
Social curating – in the sense of “taking care” of his friend and collaborator Milan Adamčiak – includes the real help to the artist (started in 2005) that culminated last year when Murin organized the collection of money for buying Adamčiak a small cottage after he became homeless. Murin appropriates the strategies of a gallerist and intervenes to the art market. In Wroclaw he will present Milan Adamčiak´s work by playing with the dominant format of presenting the neoavantgarde artist created by the network of Soros intellectuals and curators - namely through the archive and a joined presentation of the two generations of artists from 60´s and 90´s, in which the heritage is transmitted to the younger artist.
Ivana Komanická, 2011
