Ask a curator your burning art questions on Twitter
Ever wonder what kind of challenges crop up when installing conceptual art? Or how to secure loans from far flung collections? Or what the weirdest artist’s request might be? On 1 September, your questions could be answered if you take part in the first ever “Ask a Curator Day” on social networking platform Twitter. The event is organised by museum marketing specialist Jim Richardson, who previously launched the popular “Follow A Museum Day” on Twitter in February to boost the public’s appreciation of arts and cultural institutions using the site. Over 300 curators from museums around the world will be available for one on one Q+A’s, or you can post a general question using the tag “#askacurator” and a participating curator will reply. For more info and a list of museums taking part visit www.askacurator.com
