Premiere | Artist Talk | Doug Aitken
Doug Aitken inaugurates this year’s Conversations with a discussion about his most recent project ‘Station to Station’.

Public/Private | Museums Go Global
Expanding the collecting and exhibiting mandates of many leading Western museums is accompanied by a host of unanswered questions: What aspects of global art culture should these institutions embrace? How should museums modify their approaches to collecting, programming, and educating? What institutional models should they adopt? And how are artists and institutions in other parts of the world responding to the intensified regional presence of Western institutions? Drawing on recent experiences with global initiatives and collaborations, this panel of leading curators and museum directors will explore the benefits and pitfalls of going global.
