Everything you ever wanted to know about Hans Ulrich Obrist but were afraid to ask has been asked by the sixteen practitioners in this book. Spanning the beginning of his career? as a young curator in his Zurich kitchen to his time most recently as the Co-Director of Exhibitions and Programs, and Director of International Projects at the Serpentine Gallery in London, the book is a \u0093production of reality conversations? It undertakes the impossible: pinning down this peripatetic curator, attempting to map his psychogeography so that silences may be transcribed. In a sense, it organizes a \u00c3\u0093protest against forgetting? and affirms the sagacity of an artist who told this dontstop curator \u0093don’t go? when he\u0093contemplated leaving the art world? for other fields?\u0093to go beyond the fear of pooling knowledge??in lieu of bringing other fields into the (then) hermetic art world.
