In these essays and conversations Daniel Birnbaum explores what conceptual artist Daniel Buren
referred to as the 'frames of art'. As a director of institutions he has organized events
inside and outside some of the most significant art institutions in Europe including the
Venice Biennale the Städelschule in Frankfurt Moderna Museet and the Centre Pompidou. Like
few other curators he has pushed the boundaries of the studio the exhibition and the museum
in an attempt to find new ways to 'frame' art . The volume contains examples of curatorial
approaches to education exhibition-making and the presentation of collections.
