Parallel to that public institutions, like the Corcoran Gallery of Art and College of Art + Design are under the threat by market driven politics.<em> <\/em><\/p>\n<p>McLellan is an independent cultural manager and curator with over 20 years of experiences operating in seemingly opposite structures; for example she\u00a0has founded and run both non-profit and a profit gallery. At her lecture\u00a0she will\u00a0present an analytical overview of different modes of operation, especially how to establish and run diverse formats of organisation in the contemporary arts (profit, non-profit, public, private) and\u00a0a\u00a0comparative\u00a0analysis between them, illustrated by examples of her own practice.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/92160610?byline=0&#038;portrait=0\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldofart.org\/arhiv.worldofart.org\/current\/archives\/2300\"><strong>&raquo; Read the lecture<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In Slovene translation published: Jayme McLellan, Umetni\u0161ke scene in kulturni producenti spreminjajo svet, Artwords, No. 100 (Winter 2014), pp. 67-71.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>WORKSHOP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Potentials of independent operation in the field of art \u2013 based on her work in States, but also on her extensive knowledge of Slovene scene \u2013 will be the focus of our discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Namely, McLellan has managed to contribute both theoretical (as a professor at various art schools), but especially as initiator and organiser of important organisations and venues that contributed to the emergence of vivid Washington independent art scene. At the same time she has been several times researching Slovene (and wider ex-Yugoslav) art scene and has, since late 90\u2019s, established a fruitful collaboration with local art scene. In the workshop we will compare both art systems and try to answer the questions: How to set up own working conditions and platforms? How to adjust an appropriate structure to the acquired theoretical knowledge? How do two different yet complimentary models of \u2018more rebellious galleries\u2019 running without NGO structure in the States benefit artists and support the artistic community? What are the revenue streams used to stabilize such institutions and how does this help or hinder diverse presentations of work?<\/p>\n<p>Participants will be invited to propose suitable organisational format for their work (imagine perfect institution or perfect individual modus operandi) and then analyse and develop further the idea.
