At Duran Art Projects, curatorial practice is conceived as a site of inquiry, mediation, and critical construction. It is through a research-intensive, artist-centered methodology that we seek to articulate exhibitions and projects that both contextualize and interrogate contemporary artistic production.

Our curatorial approach privileges collaboration without relinquishing critical authorship. We believe the curator’s role extends beyond facilitation into the co-construction of meaning — shaping exhibitions as discursive spaces where artistic practices, historical frameworks, and socio-political realities intersect. Each project is developed through sustained research, dialogical engagement with artists, and an acute attentiveness to the specificities of site, audience, and medium.

At DAP, exhibition-making is not reduced to display but understood as an epistemological practice: a means of generating new forms of knowledge and experience through visual and spatial dramaturgy. We employ curatorial strategies that include thematic juxtaposition, archival excavation, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, always attentive to the possibilities of re-framing narratives and unsettling normative structures.
