Connecting the Dots

 
Connecting the Dots
Curation is Communications Design
By John Chaich

As both a designer who curates and a curator who designs, I embrace an interconnected practice that allows me to author and style similar ideas—love, loss, identity, materiality, and community—through not only creating my own work but also presenting others’.


Curating is a way of connecting the dots of questions, inspirations, and delineations that intrigue me. Like design, curating frames, navigates, and communicates in a space.

Chaich will also be curating Visual AIDS's Mixed Messages: A(I)DS, Art + Words exhibition at LaMaMa la Galleria NYC in June 2011. Mixed Messages will present text-based work by both fine and graphic artists reflecting the contexts in which AIDS awareness messages have been created and are received, historically and today.
