Contemporary curating is marked by a turn to education. Educational formats, methods, programmes, models, terms, processes and procedures have become pervasive in the praxes of both curating and the production of contemporary art and in their attendant critical frameworks. This is not simply to propose that curatorial projects have increasingly adopted education as a theme; it is, rather, to assert that curating increasingly operates as an expanded educational praxis. It is this proposition — that curating, and art production more broadly, have produced, undergone or otherwise manifested an educational turn — to which the authors gathered in this volume have been invited to respond.
