Thirty years of reflections on the intertwined disciplines of art curating and art writing
Exhibition curating and art writing are closely related disciplines. Both practices construct a meaningful, public narrative regarding artifacts and artists. Most curators and writers accomplish this by tapping into the artist, their work and their world. Mark Kremer has been writing, curating, teaching and interacting with artists for decades. Beautiful Madness is an accumulation of his writings on contemporary art from 1993 to 2023. The book gathers pieces along lines of affinity, themes and attitudes, structured in five topics: "Trace," "Gesture," "Rudiment," "Polyphony" and "Fortitude." It mirrors his experiences with art curating, writing and thinking, and is of value to anybody who wants to sharpen their pen and/or rethink what curating might mean.
Mark Kremer (born 1963) is an independent curator and writer based in Amsterdam.
