As part of its 20th anniversary celebration, Artium Museoa has programmed a series of meetings with agents from the field of art in order to provide a variety of perspectives on the future prospects of museums and their social and heritage responsibility, as well as on the creation of knowledge.

Asier Mendizabal: Dejar para luego (Leave for later)

In this talk, the artist will discuss some of the moments in which his work has intersected with the museographic, the collection and the canon. Through three of his projects, Mendizabal will suggest that any collection is necessarily a contingent accumulation of materials. The readings that are symptomatically made in the future of our present choices are what will turn that contingency into a signifier and a collection into a story.

Asier Mendizabal (Ordizia, 1973) is a visual artist involved in several educational projects in addition to his current position as professor of sculpture at KKH, Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm.
