Cómo Atraer a Grandes Artistas con Pocos Recursos – Viviana Kuri: Directora de MAZ | #88

In this episode of Art in Dialogue, we speak with Viviana Kuri, director and chief curator of the Museo de Arte de Zapopan (MAZ), one of the most active and innovative contemporary art institutions in Mexico. We discuss how MAZ has successfully brought together internationally renowned artists such as Tino Sehgal, Francis Alÿs, Mark Bradford, José Dávila, and Melanie Smith, and how it has been instrumental in decentralizing art from Guadalajara. Viviana shares her views on the museum's role in her community, the challenges of managing a public museum on a limited budget, and how critical thinking and new ways of looking at art can be fostered. ——— 00:00 Intro 01:54 Guest Gallery 02:11 Viviana Kuri: Decentralizing Art in Mexico 03:55 Museo de Arte en Zapopan (MAZ) and Esación Maz 06:08 Viviana's Career 09:05 Viviana's Arrival at MAZ and Her New Approaches 12:39 What Great Art Does 13:41 Attracting the Best Artists 15:36 Tino Sehgal: Art, Dance, and His Works 18:31 How to Achieve International Exhibitions 20:01 Creative Freedom in Mexico 21:20 Creativity and Artistic Support 22:42 The Origin of MAZ 25:07 The New Headquarters' Biggest Challenge 25:45 Free Access as a Form of Universal Access 27:53 Inclusion of Communities and Activities 31:07 Gender Parity in the Exhibitions 31:53 Educational Programs for Children and Adolescents 33:20 Curatorial Independence from the Government 34:22 Public vs. Private: Differences in Museum Management 35:47 New Alliances and the Creation of a Board of Trustees 36:59 Traveling Exhibitions and International Collaboration 37:37 A Tale of Tino Sehgal 39:17 How to Measure the Success of an Exhibition? 42:11 Transformative Exhibitions: Viviana's Personal Experience 43:23 Mark Bradford in Guadalajara: Impact and Community 44:13 Guadalajara as an Artistic Birthplace 45:55 Melanie Smith and the Expansion of Painting 46:14 What Would the Museum of Dreams Look Like? 47:23 Mexico: Creativity in the Midst of Adversity 48:16 The Project with Women Searchers and Art as Healing 50:45 The Role of Art in Spain and Mexico 52:04 Closing: Art as an Act of Faith and a Gift of Life ——— 📸 All images in this video are courtesy of MAZ: https://bit.ly/46nzuI4 ——— 💡 Connect with Arteinformado's vibrant artistic community: https://bit.ly/3VApcjG 👉 Follow Viviana Kuri and the Zapopan Art Museum (MAZ) on Arteinformado: https://bit.ly/46oYsqy https://bit.ly/3I4H3eR ——— 🖼️ Information about the exhibition featured in this episode: Gallery, Pradiauto & Artist, Blanca Guerrero https://bit.ly/4leIdCJ https://bit.ly/4lgdMvS For this episode, JPradiauto Gallery presents artist Blanca Guerrero. Her process begins with an exercise in conscious observation, while simultaneously relinquishing self-awareness in the face of certain landscapes, moments, or environments.
