“(Curating) From A to Z” offers a summary of the development of curatorial practice over the last two decades seen through the eyes of curator Jens Hoffmann. In this publication each letter of the alphabet evokes a particular word related to the world of exhibition making: From A (as in Artist) and B (as in Biennial) to R (as in Retrospective) and W (as in White Cube). Employing a diarist style, the curator presents his personal curatorial alphabet with a similar transparency and the same idiosyncratic character revealed in many of his exhibitions. The entries are not only stimulating and intellectually rigorous, but also emotionally engaging. Jens Hoffmann (b. 1974 in San José, Costa Rica) is a writer, exhibition maker, and educator. He currently is Deputy Director of The Jewish Museum, New York. He has published widely in journals and museum publications and has written over 200 texts on art and exhibition making over the last 15 years. His most recent books include “The Studio” (2012), as well as “Show Time: A History of Exhibitions” (2014). He is the founder and editor of “The Exhibitionist: Journal on Exhibition Making.” Most recently he co-curated the 9th Shanghai Biennial (2012/13) and the 12th Istanbul Biennial (2011).

In the mid-1960s, there was widespread dissatisfaction in German architecture faculties: in the eyes of students and teaching assistants, the training of so-called artist-architects no longer seemed in keeping with the times. In protest, they independently organized their own interdisciplinary seminars and examinations. They committed themselves to the scientification of the architectural plan. During the period of student unrest, they debated the social uses of architecture and planning and tested participative models in practical contexts. Students printed flyers, campaigned in various political groups, and set up magazines. On the basis of interviews with contemporary observers of the scene, archival research, and contributions from authors, the book presents a detailed overview of these now almost “forgotten schools”. The editors were inspired not only by reviewing the historical events but also by the relevance they have for current debates on the professional profile of planners and architects and their sociopolitical responsibilities. Text: Matthias Burke, Beatrice Colomina, Hisar Ersöz, Jesko Fezer, Matthias Görlich, Nina Gribat, Eleonore Harmel, Julia Hartmann, Tanja Herdt, Leon Jank, Philipp Misselwitz, Ines Weizman Eyewitness: Harald Bodenschatz, Klaus Brake, Peter Conradi, Rolf Czeskleba–Dupont, Peter Dietze, Uwe Drepper, Gisbert Dreyer, Franziska Eichstädt-Bohlig, Rainer W.

The Journal explores the circulation of people, goods, information, and even fauna and flora, around the world and the transformative impact they have on contemporary life. While migration is part of humanity's genesis, it seems the phenomenon has become ubiquitous, happening faster, with complex ramifications. MIGRANT aims at exploring the relationship between these elements, events, journeys and spaces bound under the idea of 'migration' in all its forms, crucial to understand today's society. In order to break from the prejudices and clichés of migrants and migration, MIGRANT asks artists, journalists, academics, designers, architects, philosophers, activists and citizens to rethink our approach to migration and critically explore the new spaces it creates.
