In <em>Beyond Caring: Para-hosting as Curatorial Escape<\/em>, Paul O&#8217;Neill explores how new forms of invitation can reimagine host\u2013guest relations and open escape routes from fixed institutional roles. Moving between speculation, critique, and proposition, the essay introduces &#8220;para- hosting&#8221; as a cooperative methodology of generosity and self-organization without absorption. For O&#8217;Neill, para-hosting is a form of escape that enables transformative possibilities beyond existing power structures within institutions and otherwise.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"note\">In the early 2010s, the idea of &#8220;the curatorial&#8221; arose after a short but intense debate about what it means to curate exhibitions. The books in the <em>On the Curatorial<\/em> series look at the consequences of that discussion today and ask: Do we need different curatorial tools to engage with deepening social, political, and ecological crises? The series allows earlier participants in the debate to reflect on how their concepts and practices have changed, while younger generations of curators explore the ongoing need for new conceptual approaches to curation.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Contribution by Gerrie van Noord.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>AUTHOR:<\/strong> Edited by Carolina Rito<br \/>\n<strong>PUBLISHER:<\/strong> Floating Opera Press (2026)<\/p>\n<p><strong>SOFTCOVER:<\/strong> 104 pages<br \/>\n<strong>LANGUAGE:<\/strong> English<br \/>\n<strong>ISBN:<\/strong> 978-3-9826683-1-4<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":47606,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[135,284,227],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-47607","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-english-en","product_cat-curating-museum-exhibitions","product_cat-essays-en","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
