The Journal of Curatorial Studies explores curatorial practices, institutional critique, and the social and political dimensions of exhibitions. It examines how exhibitions and museums engage with diverse audiences, challenge dominant narratives, and contribute to social transformation. The journal also addresses issues of decolonization, disability in art, and the historical development of curatorial work.
