Shall that be the result of what has happened in all major exhibitions we have seen
in this exhibition-fruitful-year?
The value that describes the best ethics of this process could be titled insincerity,
where forms do not equal original statements. It happens in many shows, is being
allowed or welcomed by curators and it makes curatorial statements old fashioned
by. But what are the artists thinking? They carry parts of the responsibility as well.
Did contemporary art become old fashioned? It is contradiction, of course, but I
guess that the system is too slow, things change faster, so exhibitions are getting
out of date, and it concerns especially the reviews of art as well as the major shows.
I can still bear the research exhibitions, and the whole range of other events.
And what I think is slowing the system down is the current art market. It takes time
to overdo a work from its original form to a gallery piece. And in other cases when it
is produced as a gallery piece, it already is often recognisable that the process of
adaptation already happened.
What we have been discussing were curators, art system, market, money, politics
but we did not speak about art. We did not discuss how to treat art within the art
system in order to open doors leading to any changes. This is what we should do,
curate art. Curating should mean treating art in a good manner and I’m not sure
that we curators are doing it always well.
Someone here has mentioned earlier how the money makes the world go round,
which is, of course, as notorious as can be. Only one thing to add is the fact that
money also shall have ethics in its behaviour, which of course depends on those who
are directing the money around. Art has anyway an eternal history on relying on

Bugünkü konferans boyunca, kimsenin herhangi bir sanatç›dan söz etmedicurrency1ini ve
sadece bir sanat yap›t›ndan söz edildicurrency1ini farkettiniz mi?
Sergi aç›s›ndan bereketli olan bu sene içerisinde gördücurrency1ümüz tüm büyük sergilerde
olan bitenin sonucu bu mu?
Biçimlerin, özgün söylemlere denk düflmedicurrency1i bu sürecin ahlak›n› en iyi betimleyen
decurrency1er, samimiyetsizlik olarak adland›r›labilir. Bu bir çok gösteride oluyor, küratörler
taraf›ndan izin veriliyor veya memnuniyetle karfl›lan›yor ve bu, küratöryel söylemleri
eski moda k›l›yor. Peki ama sanatç›lar ne düflünüyor? Onlar da sorumlulucurrency1un bir
bölümünü tafl›yor. Çacurrency1dafl sanat eski moda m› oldu? Bu bir çeliflki, tabii, ama
san›r›m sistem yavafl kal›yor, ifller daha h›zl› decurrency1ifliyor, dolay›s›yla sergilerin modas›
geçiyor ve bu da özellikle sanat elefltirilerini ilgilendiriyor, t›pk› büyük sergilerin
ilgilendirdicurrency1i gibi. Araflt›rma sergileri ve tüm dicurrency1er etkinlikler dizisine hala
katlanabilirim.
Sistemin h›z›n› düflürdücurrency1üne inand›currency1›m fley, günümüz sanat piyasas›. Bir ifli özgün

farkedilebiliyor.
Küratörler, sanat sistemi, pazar, para, politikalar hakk›nda tart›flt›k – ama sanat
hakk›nda konuflmad›k. Herhangi bir decurrency1iflime yol açacak kap›lar› açmak için, sanat›
sanat sistemi içinde nas›l ele almam›z gerekticurrency1i hakk›nda tart›flmad›k. Asl›nda
yapmam›z gereken bu, sanat›n küratörlücurrency1ünü yapmak. Küratörlük yapmak, sanata
iyi davranmak anlam›na gelmeli ve bizim küratörler olarak bunu her zaman iyi yap›p
